Here are your options for how to get your blood tests done:
- Order an at-home finger prick test through the GenderGP Blood Test Portal. Vitall, the service provider, offers this as an option for GenderGP members and non-members who are 16 or older and not taking (or want to start) spironolactone. The finger prick test is sufficient for all tests aside from potassium level (which requires a venous sample). They will send your blood test results directly to your email address.
- Get your tests done through your GP or healthcare provider (if you need a Blood Test Referral Letter to advise them about what you need, you can order one through the Treatment Recommendation form for £20 (Obtaining Letters and Reports).
- Get your tests done in person through a private clinic or hospital.
- Find an online blood testing service to help you with a venous sample (they can come to your home).
When you have your results, please submit them in the Treatment Recommendation form for analysis.
