Even if you're feeling well, regular health checkups help detect hidden conditions early. Here are some essential tests you should consider:

1. Liver Function Test (LFT)

Checks your liver enzymes, bilirubin, and protein levels to detect liver diseases like hepatitis or fatty liver.

  • Recommended: Once every 1 to 3 years (annually if you take medications, alcohol, or have a fatty diet).

2. Blood Sugar Tests

Includes fasting blood sugar (FBS), post-meal sugar (PPBS), and HbA1c, which shows your average sugar levels over 3 months.

  • Recommended: Annually, especially if you're over 30, overweight, or have a family history of diabetes.

3. Complete Blood Count (CBC)

Measures red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, and platelets to detect anemia, infections, or immune issues.

  • Recommended: Once a year.

4. Lipid Profile

Checks cholesterol levels (HDL, LDL, triglycerides) to assess your heart disease risk.

  • Recommended: Every 1–2 years; annually if you have high-fat intake or a family history of heart disease.

5. Kidney Function Test

Includes creatinine and urea levels to assess how well your kidneys are filtering waste.

  • Recommended: Every 1–2 years.

6. Thyroid Profile (TSH, T3, T4)

Detects hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, which can affect energy, weight, mood, and more.

  • Recommended: Every 1–2 years; yearly if you have symptoms like fatigue, hair loss, or weight changes.

7. Vitamin D Test

Measures your Vitamin D level, important for bone strength, mood, and immunity.

  • Recommended: Every 1–2 years, especially if you have little sun exposure or bone/joint pain.

8. Urine Routine Test

Helps detect urinary infections, kidney problems, or diabetes markers.

  • Recommended: Every 1–2 years.

9. ECG (Electrocardiogram)

Checks your heart’s rhythm and electrical activity to detect early signs of heart problems.

  • Recommended: Every 2–3 years (earlier if you feel chest discomfort or have family history).

Detects vision issues, eye strain, and early signs of diseases like glaucoma or cataracts.

  • Recommended: Every 2 years; yearly if you wear glasses or are above 40.
