We are dedicated to the importance of regular testing and understanding your body's changes over time. Limiting tests to a few markers or imposing high costs compromises this vital process.

Fingerprick testing presents significant challenges, which is why we exclusively offer samples collected by a phlebotomist at the most affordable prices. Our comprehensive testing includes a wide range of markers.

Join us in our mission to empower more people to gain meaningful health insights over time.

Fingerprick testing is both unreliable and often an unpleasant experience, as anyone who has tried to squeeze blood into small tubes will testify. Squeezing actually leads to invalid markers, as it affects the sample quality.

Additionally, due to the high volume of markers we offer, a fingerprick sample would further reduce the quality of the results. Therefore, we do not offer fingerprick testing.

Once you have placed an order, we will contact you to find a suitable time and location for your blood sample collection. If you have any special requests, please let us know when we contact you.

The nurses/phlebotomists usually work in the NHS and work for Lola part-time for additional income. They are all very kind, experienced, and extremely well-vetted.

Before Your Blood Collection:

• Hydrate: Drink plenty of water to make the blood draw easier.
• Stay Warm: Use warm clothes or a heating pad to improve blood flow.
• Pets: Keep pets away during the blood draw to avoid any interruptions.
• Location: Choose a well-lit area, like a kitchen table or a comfy chair, for the procedure.
• Special Needs: Inform us of any past issues or special requirements you may have.

After the Procedure:

• Apply Pressure: Press the wound for at least 2 minutes to stop bleeding.
• Keep Dressing On: Leave the dressing on for at least 1 hour to prevent infection.
• Avoid Heavy Lifting: Don’t overuse your arm for the rest of the day to avoid strain.

Watch for These Signs:

• Excessive Bruising: Apply pressure and ice. The bruising should subside in a few days.
• Continued Pain: Use an ice pack for swelling. Persistent pain is rare but possible.
• Continued Bleeding: Apply strong pressure for at least 10 minutes. Call 999 if you feel lightheaded.

Now, your blood sample will be sent by our phlebotomist to the NHS-accredited lab. Once processed, it will be reviewed by our doctors and will be sent to you with a tailored review.
