Understand Your Results

Written by Dr Daniela Berg

Your results show each biomarker that was measured, along with its value, unit of measurement, and a reference range. Here's how to read them.

Reference ranges represent the typical range for the general population. They're set by the laboratory and are based on what's considered normal for most healthy adults. Your individual "normal" may sit slightly outside these ranges depending on your age, sex, medications, and other factors.

In-range results fall within the reference range. This generally means the measurement is within typical limits.

Out-of-range results are flagged so you can spot them easily. A result outside the reference range doesn't automatically mean something is wrong. It's a signal worth paying attention to, but it needs context. Your GP can look at the numbers alongside your full health picture and advise on whether any follow-up is needed.

What we provide and what we don't. We provide your biomarker data and reference ranges. We don't interpret what the results mean for your individual health, as that's your GP's role. It's always worth taking your results to your GP so they can put the numbers into context for you.

If any of your results were flagged as critical values during our clinical review, you'll have been contacted separately with a recommendation to see your GP promptly.
