A transferrin test measures the level of transferrin in the blood, a protein responsible for transporting iron throughout the body. The transferrin test is a valuable tool in diagnosing and managing various conditions related to iron metabolism. It can provide essential insights into iron deficiency anaemia, iron overload situations, nutritional health, liver function, and treatment effectiveness. Always consult with a healthcare professional to understand the context and implications of transferrin testing tailored to individual health needs.
