At-Home Lab Testing & Telehealth in Texas

• Fasting Insulin

  Fasting insulin may provide additional context about insulin sensitivity when considered alongside glucose, A1C and other relevant clinical findings. It is not consistently included in routine laboratory testing.

• Thyroid Testing

  TSH is commonly used as an initial thyroid screening test. Depending on symptoms, history and initial findings, a provider may consider additional testing such as free T4 or selected thyroid antibodies.

• Advanced Cardiovascular Markers

  Depending on individual risk factors, providers may consider markers beyond a standard lipid panel, such as Lp(a) or ApoB, alongside a patient's overall cardiovascular risk profile.

• Hormone Testing

  Depending on symptoms, age, health history and other clinical factors, a provider may consider selected hormone tests when evaluating reproductive, metabolic or hormone health.

• Nutritional Markers

  Depending on symptoms, diet, health history and risk factors, providers may consider tests such as vitamin D, vitamin B12, ferritin or magnesium when clinically relevant.

Your provider reviews relevant results alongside your symptoms, history and goals, rather than checking each value in isolation, to build a fuller picture before recommending next steps.

* THRYVE’s physician team reviews relevant laboratory results before making clinical recommendations. Hormone therapy, medical weight-loss programs and peptide therapy, when appropriate, are based on individual evaluation and findings. Eligibility and clinical appropriateness are determined on an individual basis.

• Metabolic and Blood Sugar Markers

  Depending on individual risk factors and clinical concerns, providers may consider fasting insulin alongside measures such as fasting glucose and A1C when evaluating metabolic health. Fasting insulin may provide additional context about insulin sensitivity, but its significance depends on other lab findings, symptoms, health history and overall clinical assessment.

• Thyroid Testing

  Thyroid evaluation commonly begins with TSH. Depending on symptoms, health history and initial findings, a provider may consider additional testing such as free T4 or selected thyroid antibodies. The appropriate tests depend on the clinical situation rather than a standard expanded panel for every patient.

• Hormone Testing

  Depending on symptoms, age, health history and other clinical factors, a provider may consider selected markers such as testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, FSH, LH or other relevant hormones. Testing should be selected according to the individual clinical situation, and results require interpretation alongside symptoms, medications, health history and related findings.

• Advanced Cardiovascular Markers

  Depending on individual risk factors, providers may consider markers beyond a standard lipid panel. Lipoprotein(a), or Lp(a), can help identify inherited cardiovascular risk, while ApoB may provide additional information about atherogenic lipoprotein burden in selected patients. High-sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) may also provide additional risk context in appropriate situations. Testing should be selected and interpreted alongside a patient's overall cardiovascular risk profile.

• Nutritional and Inflammatory Markers

  Depending on symptoms, diet, health history and individual risk factors, providers may consider markers such as vitamin D, vitamin B12, ferritin or other relevant nutritional measures. In appropriate situations, inflammatory markers such as hs-CRP may provide additional clinical context. Results should be interpreted alongside the patient's overall clinical picture.
