Insulin

Insulin is a peptide hormone secreted by the pancreas that facilitates cellular uptake of glucose. By analysing a venous blood sample for insulin concentration, clinicians can gain insight into how the body manages blood sugar, which may be associated with insulin resistance, pre‑diabetes, or type‑2 diabetes. The laboratory evaluates one biomarker—insulin—and typically delivers results within 3‑5 business days. The test fee is £68, plus a £50 charge for the phlebotomy visit. No fasting is mandated, though patients may be advised to follow any provider‑specific instructions. The package includes the blood draw, laboratory measurement, and a comprehensive results report, with optional follow‑up consultation.
