Hepcidin Blood Test
Hepcidin Blood Test in Pune
The Hepcidin blood test measures hepcidin, a key hormone that regulates iron absorption and distribution in the body. Abnormal hepcidin levels are linked to iron deficiency anaemia, anaemia of chronic disease, and iron overload disorders. At healthcare nt sickcare, this specialised test is available in Pune through both home collection facility and direct walk-in facility.
Doctors advise this test when routine iron studies do not clearly explain low haemoglobin, persistent fatigue, or abnormal ferritin levels. Hepcidin testing helps differentiate between nutritional iron deficiency and inflammation-related anaemia. You may review general preparation guidance on our test preparation guides page or explore additional diagnostic insights via our patient resources.
