What this test is

This panel typically combines several blood measurements that can reflect thyroid function, vitamin levels, inflammation, and other general health markers. It is intended to give a clinician a broader picture when assessing mood-related concerns.

What it measures

  • Thyroid stimulating hormone — reflects thyroid gland activity
  • Free thyroxine — reflects circulating thyroid hormone levels
  • Vitamin B12 — reflects vitamin B12 status
  • Folate — reflects folate levels in the blood
  • Vitamin D — reflects vitamin D status
  • C-reactive protein — reflects general inflammation
  • Complete blood count — reflects red and white blood cell populations
  • Comprehensive metabolic panel — reflects kidney, liver, and electrolyte function

What the test involves

The panel usually requires a standard blood draw from a vein in your arm. In some cases, a urine sample may also be collected depending on the specific markers included.

Why it is often ordered

A clinician may order this panel to look for underlying conditions that can sometimes contribute to low mood, such as thyroid imbalance or nutritional deficiencies. It is often used alongside a clinical interview and other assessments, not as a replacement for them.

Preparation

Your preparation may depend on the specific markers included, so follow the instructions provided by the collection lab. Common steps can include fasting for several hours or avoiding certain supplements before the draw.

How results are reported

Results are reported as numerical values for each marker, often with a reference range provided by the performing laboratory. Reference ranges can vary between laboratories, so your clinician will interpret your results in the context of your health history.

Before you go

  • Whether fasting is required for your specific panel
  • Which laboratory will perform the testing and how results will be delivered
  • If any medications or supplements you take could affect the results
