About the Test
Why is the Test ?
A Complete Blood Count (CBC) is a routine blood test that helps assess your overall health and detect conditions such as anemia, infections, inflammation, blood disorders, and nutritional deficiencies. It measures red blood cells, white blood cells, hemoglobin, and platelets, providing valuable insights into your health. Doctors often recommend a CBC test as part of regular health checkups, before surgery, or when you have symptoms like fatigue, fever, weakness, or frequent infections. Early detection through a CBC test can help ensure timely diagnosis and treatment.
Who should take it ?

It is especially useful for people experiencing fatigue, weakness, frequent infections, fever, unexplained weight loss, easy bruising, or excessive bleeding. Doctors also advise a CBC test for individuals with chronic medical conditions, before surgery, during pregnancy, or to monitor ongoing treatments and overall health.
Why is it done ?
