Do you want to be healthy and live happily ever after? Then you should know which analyzes and studies are required.
Forewarned is forearmed. Especially when it comes to your own health. A comprehensive examination will help to warn of any deviations. Mostly analyzes. They account for about 80% of all studies. We found out what are necessary for both men and women at different ages.
Analyzes are highly sensitive and highly specific: the former indicate abnormalities, the latter identify the cause. For example, a deviation from the norm in the analysis, reflecting the work of the liver, indicates its defeat in general. But what exactly is happening, he will not show. For this, a special study is appointed, and even more than one, to our displeasure. Because the doctor needs to check all known to science possible causes of the detected deviations. Thus, the method of search and exclusion reveals the truth and selects a specific treatment program.
REGULATIONS
GENERAL FOR ANY ANALYSIS: do not eat heavy protein foods, alcohol, sugary soft drinks, animal fats and white flour products the day before.
BIOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF BLOOD: surrenders on an empty stomach. Eating causes an increase in blood glucose and white blood cell levels, and these are deliberately false results.
ANALYSIS FOR HORMONES: in a few days it is better to give up alcohol, smoke less immediately before delivery.A study of female hormones is carried out on certain days of the cycle (usually on the 5-7th day, progesterone - after the 20th day) - it is important not to miss!
ANALYSIS ON ANTIBODIES TO HEPATITIS, TORCH INFECTIONS (RED, TOXOPLASMOSIS, HERPES, GIT HALOVIRUS), HIV-infection: you can take it on an empty stomach.
WHAT ARE THEIR NAMES
➜ GENERAL CLINICAL STUDIES are needed to determine overall health. The most important is a general blood test. It shows whether there is a latent infection, a tendency to allergies, whether hemoglobin is at a good level, which largely determines the vitality of a person.
➜ URINE ANALYSIS can talk not only about the inflammatory processes of the genitourinary system, but also about diabetes mellitus, hormonal changes.
➜ ANALYSIS FOR DETERMINATION OF THE BLOOD GROUP AND RESUS FACTOR, as well as the presence of antihemolysins and antiresus antibodies in the blood is extremely important for pregnant women. But each person, no doubt, must know his blood type and Rh factor.
➜ BIOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS is necessary to determine the functional state of almost all organs and systems. They determine the state of the liver, kidneys, heart, pancreas, etc. Hormonal tests that determine the function of the thyroid gland and reproductive system are most often in demand. There are countless markers here, the doctor chooses the necessary ones according to the situation.
➜ SEROLOGICAL RESEARCH - markers of infections. These are studies for the presence of hepatitis (A, B, C, D), measles, toxoplasma, cytomegalovirus, herpes, rubella, as well as syphilis, HIV, chlamydia, mycoplasmas and ureaplasmas, giardia and helminths, Helicobacter and some other viral and bacterial infections.
➜ POLYMERASE CHAIN REACTION (PCR) - the study of human DNA for the presence of a bacterial infection quite accurately diagnoses the causative agents of infections - mycoplasma, ureaplasma, chlamydia, etc.
