What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing unexplained blood clots, a history of deep vein thrombosis, or recurrent miscarriages that may be linked to a clotting disorder. It's also useful if close family members have had clotting problems and you want to understand your own risk. The panel helps identify what's causing your blood to clot too easily.

What's included in this test?

This panel looks at several proteins and factors involved in how your blood clots, since an imbalance in any of these can raise your risk for dangerous clots. Some markers check for clotting factors that are overactive, while others check for natural clot-preventing proteins that might be too low. Together, they give a fuller picture of why your blood may be clotting abnormally.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will show up in your secure account, with each value's normal range clearly explained so you know what's typical and what's not. Depending on what shows up, next steps might include lifestyle changes like staying active on long trips, discussing blood thinners if you have a history of clots, or retesting to confirm a result. You can download a standard lab report anytime, and if you test again in the future, the trends feature lets you track changes over time. If any result suggests an active, severe clotting event with symptoms like leg swelling or chest pain, seek medical care right away.

How can I naturally support healthy blood clotting balance?

Staying hydrated and moving regularly, especially during long flights or periods of bed rest, helps keep blood flowing normally. Eating a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish and walnuts, may support healthy circulation. Avoiding smoking and maintaining a healthy weight also reduce clotting risk. These habits work alongside any specific findings from your results, not as a replacement for addressing an identified clotting disorder.

When will I get my results?

Results for this panel are typically ready within about 7 days after your sample is collected. You'll get a notification once they're posted to your account so you can log in and review them. Because clotting panels involve multiple specialized markers, some results may take a bit longer to finalize than a basic blood test.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good fit for people who've had an unexplained blood clot, a stroke or heart attack at a young age, or repeated pregnancy losses. It's also worth considering if you have close relatives with known clotting disorders. Anyone preparing for major surgery or long-term hormone therapy with a family history of clots may also want this information.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Watch for leg swelling, pain, or warmth that could signal a clot, sudden shortness of breath, or chest pain. Unexplained bruising, repeated miscarriages, or a clot that appeared without an obvious cause like surgery or injury are also signs. If you've had multiple clotting events in your lifetime, this panel can help explain why.

What does it mean if a clotting factor is high?

A high result for a clotting factor generally means your blood has a stronger tendency to form clots than normal, which raises the risk of dangerous blockages in veins or arteries. This doesn't mean a clot will definitely happen, but it's a signal to be proactive about prevention. Simple steps like staying active, avoiding prolonged sitting, and not smoking can help lower that added risk.

What does it mean if a clot-preventing protein is low?

Your body naturally makes proteins that help stop clots from growing too large, and if one of these is low, your blood may clot more easily than it should. This is often an inherited trait, so family history matters here too. Knowing about a low result early lets you take preventive steps, like staying hydrated and mobile, before a clot becomes a problem.

How often should I retest?

If your first results are normal but you have a strong family history of clotting problems, retesting isn't usually needed unless new symptoms appear. If a result was abnormal, retesting after any lifestyle changes or before major events like surgery or pregnancy can help confirm the finding. The trends feature in your account makes it easy to compare results side by side over time.
