Hair Loss Blood Test — 45 Biomarker Hair Loss Investigation Panel | Boost & Glow

Watching your hair fall out and not knowing why is one of the most distressing experiences there is. This test finds the answer.

Hair loss is rarely just about your hair. In the vast majority of cases, excessive shedding, thinning, and poor regrowth are symptoms of something happening deeper inside your body — a nutritional deficiency, a hormonal shift, a thyroid problem, or an inflammatory process that's quietly disrupting your hair growth cycle from within.

Topical treatments, expensive shampoos, and supplements taken on a hunch rarely work — because they're treating the surface, not the source. The Boost & Glow Hair Loss Investigation Panel is designed to find the source.

With 45 clinically targeted biomarkers covering every major internal driver of hair loss, this is the most comprehensive hair loss blood test available — giving you a complete internal picture so you can stop guessing, stop wasting money, and start actually fixing the real problem.

What does the Hair Loss Investigation Panel check?

💊 Nutrients & Iron Status Active B12, Folate, Vitamin D (25-OH), Ferritin, Serum Iron, Transferrin, Transferrin Saturation, Magnesium

The nutritional foundations your hair follicles depend on to produce strong, healthy hair. Low ferritin is the single most common hidden cause of hair loss in women — and it can be critically depleted while haemoglobin remains completely normal, meaning a standard blood test will miss it entirely. Vitamin D deficiency is equally prevalent and equally underdiagnosed as a driver of shedding and poor regrowth.

🦋 Full Thyroid Profile including Antibodies TSH, Free T4, Free T3, Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies, Thyroglobulin Antibodies

Both an underactive and overactive thyroid can trigger significant hair shedding — and autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's are among the most frequently missed causes of chronic hair loss. By including thyroid antibodies alongside the standard thyroid hormones, this panel identifies autoimmune thyroid dysfunction that a basic TSH test alone will never detect.

⚖️ Full Hormone Panel Total Testosterone, Free Testosterone (Calculated), SHBG, Oestradiol, Progesterone, FSH, LH, LH/FSH Ratio, DHEA-S, Prolactin

Hormonal fluctuations are one of the most powerful triggers of hair loss — pushing follicles prematurely into the resting phase and causing widespread shedding weeks or months later. This comprehensive hormone panel identifies imbalances linked to PCOS, perimenopause, post-pregnancy hormonal shifts, adrenal stress, elevated androgens, and oestrogen dominance — all common and commonly missed drivers of hair loss in women and men.

🩸 Blood Health & Oxygen Delivery Haemoglobin, Haematocrit, RBC, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW, Platelet Count, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils, Basophils

Your hair follicles are among the most metabolically active cells in your body — they need a constant, rich supply of oxygen and nutrients delivered through the bloodstream. A full blood count identifies anaemia, poor red blood cell quality, and immune irregularities that silently starve your follicles of what they need to grow.

🫁 Liver Function & Overall Health ALT, AST, Gamma GT, Bilirubin, LDH, Albumin, Globulin, Total Protein

The liver plays a crucial and often overlooked role in hair health — it processes sex hormones, metabolises nutrients, and regulates the proteins that support hair structure. Compromised liver function or chronic low-grade inflammation can indirectly but significantly disrupt the hair growth cycle.

Who is this test for?

This test is ideal for anyone experiencing:

• Sudden or gradual hair thinning across the scalp
• Excessive daily shedding — on the pillow, in the shower, on the brush
• Postpartum hair loss that isn't resolving
• Hair loss following a period of intense stress, illness, or rapid weight loss
• Hormonal hair changes around perimenopause or after stopping hormonal contraception
• Hair that feels weaker, breaks easily, or simply won't grow past a certain length
• PCOS-related hair thinning or androgenic alopecia
• Previous hair loss investigations that came back "normal" but symptoms persist

Why standard blood tests miss the real causes of hair loss

The markers most commonly associated with hair loss — ferritin, Free T3, thyroid antibodies, free testosterone, and vitamin D — are rarely included in standard NHS blood panels. A GP visit might result in a TSH and a haemoglobin check. Both can come back "normal" while ferritin is critically low, thyroid antibodies are elevated, and free testosterone is driving follicle miniaturisation. This panel was built specifically to close those gaps — testing every marker with a known, evidence-based link to hair loss in a single comprehensive draw.

What happens after your results?

Once you have your results, you'll have the clarity to take genuinely targeted action — whether that's correcting a nutritional deficiency, addressing a hormonal imbalance, supporting thyroid health, or working with a specialist armed with real data. No more guessing. No more expensive trial and error. Just answers, and a clear path forward.
