Lower-than-normal bone mineral density that falls short of osteoporosis, marking an early stage of bone loss. DEXA measures density to catch it before fractures develop.
Our comprehensive check-up screens for mild loss of bone density (osteopenia) and hundreds of other conditions.
Calcium is essential for bone health, muscle contraction, nerve transmission, and blood clotting. Most calcium is stored in bones, with only a small portion circulating in blood under tight regulation.
Albumin-corrected calciumAccounts for calcium bound to albumin, providing a more accurate measure of biologically active calcium. Essential for bone health, nerve transmission, and muscle contraction.
Estradiol (E2)The primary active estrogen in the body. Estradiol is produced in the gonads (ovaries and testes) and in adipose tissue. It plays a central role in bone metabolism, cardiovascular protection, brain function, mood regulation, and reproductive health. Levels vary with the menstrual cycle and decline significantly during menopause. Low levels are associated with reduced bone density, mood disturbances, and impaired fertility. Elevated levels may indicate hormonal imbalance or increased aromatase activity.
Vitamin DVitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that acts like a hormone in the body. It's essential for calcium absorption, bone health, immune function, and muscle performance. The body can produce it through sunlight exposure, but it can also be obtained from food and supplements.
