No fasting is required for this test. However, as a general precaution, avoid alcohol and a heavy, fatty meal the evening before any blood test. These can temporarily alter several commonly tested markers even in tests that do not require strict fasting.

Medication guidance:

Continue taking all regular prescribed medication unless your doctor has specifically asked you to stop before this test. Inform the lab staff about all medications, supplements, and herbal remedies you are currently taking. Some substances affect specific test values, and this information helps your doctor interpret results accurately.

What to bring:

Bring your doctor's test requisition or prescription, a valid government-issued photo ID, and your health insurance card if you plan to use cashless OPD benefits. Wear clothing that allows easy access to the inside of your elbow , a short-sleeved top or a sleeve that can be rolled up comfortably.

Timing:

The best time for blood tests is in the morning after an overnight fast and a night of normal rest. Stress, poor sleep, and strenuous activity can affect several hormonal and metabolic markers. Booking a morning slot minimises these variables.
