Private Blood Testing in Birmingham
Secret Aesthetics in Birmingham are now offering private blood tests to our patients. Private blood tests are beneficial to patients who want to be able to book a convenient time for a blood test and who are looking for more specific testing than may be available via their GPs on the NHS. All of our blood tests can be tailored to our patients individual needs, and we can arrange bespoke and personalised blood testing for practically any concern you may have.
Private blood tests can be used to help identify concerns that patients are having with their health including their hormones and if they suffer from allergies. They can also help to pinpoint where patients may be deficient in certain vitamins.

Hormone level blood testing
Both male and female patients can benefit from blood tests that can analyse hormone levels.
For women who are experiencing symptoms of perimenopause or the menopause we can use hormonal blood tests to identify which hormones, such as oestrogen and progesterone, are raised or are lower than expected. This information can help patients to get a fuller picture of how their hormones are affecting their symptoms and how they feel.
Fertility blood tests are becoming a popular choice for patients who are trying to become pregnant or thinking about it. Fertility blood testing can help build a picture of your hormones and ovaries and help patients gain a clearer perspective on their reproductive health.
For male patients, Hormone blood testing can help establish testosterone levels as well as overall wellness, such as whether they have an overactive or underactive thyroid.
Blood testing for allergies
If you suffer from allergies it can be difficult to know which allergens are causing your specific symptoms. Allergy blood testing at Secret Aesthetics in Birmingham, allows patients to pinpoint exactly what allergens are causing these reactions.
Our blood tests can identify whether food, pets, pollen or other irritating substances are causing your allergic reactions and give patients the confidence to be able to identify the best treatments for their specific concerns.
Blood testing for Vitamin deficiencies
Being deficient in certain vitamins can cause mild to serious illnesses. Certain lifestyle choices can impact our levels of vitamins. Iit can be almost impossible to confidently know if we are low in vitamins, without having a blood test.
B12 Blood Testing
We get vitamin B12 from our diets, specifically from meat, fish and dairy products.
Patients who are lacking in Vitamin B12 can have various symptoms including weak muscles, numbness, weight loss, trouble walking, fatigue, irritability, nausea and a weak heart rate.
We can become deficient in B12 through lifestyle choices, for example, from following a vegan diet, or just not eating enough B12 rich foods. A B12 deficiency blood test can help to determine whether patients are low in this vital vitamin, and help to plan the right treatment to rectify this concern.
Blood Testing for Folic Acid
Folic Acid is also referred to as Vitamin B9 or Folate. This vitamin is vital for healthy cell growth and function, especially for women in early pregnancy. A lack of Folic Acid in early pregnancy can lead to birth defects of the baby’s brain or spine.
We can get enough Folic acid from our diets if we eat foods such as dark green leafy vegetables, fruits, nuts, peas, beans, eggs, dairy, meat and grains.
If we are lacking in Folic acid we may become lethargic or fatigued and suffer with anaemia.
A private blood test can allow patients to have a clear view on their Folic Acid levels and be a clear indicator of what to do if these levels are low.
Blood testing for Vitamin D
Vitamin D is vital for keeping our immune system healthy. It keeps our bones strong and helps our bodies to fight bacterial, viral and fungal infections.
We can get Vitamin D from the sun and also from our diets, with fatty fish being the best source of dietary Vitamin D. If we are low in Vitamin D we may experience symptoms such as fatigue, muscle weakness, aches or cramps, bone pain and mood changes such as depression.
A private blood test at our clinic in Birmingham can help patients identify if they are low in Vitamin D and provide information on how patients can improve their levels of this vital vitamin.
