Ulta Lab Tests

All Blood Disorder Tests

Blood disorders affect how your blood is made, how it carries oxygen, and how it clots. They include anemias, hemoglobinopathies (e.g., sickle cell, thalassemia), bleeding disorders, excessive clotting (thrombophilia), and mixed metabolic or chemistry issues that complicate blood health. Because symptoms often overlap, laboratory testing is essential for screening, diagnosis, and monitoring.

Ulta Lab Tests offers a comprehensive menu—from CBCs and iron studies to coagulation panels, hemoglobin evaluations, genetics, and chemistry tests. Order online, visit a nearby draw site, and access fast, secure results to share with your clinician.

Signs & Symptoms (When to consider testing)

  • General: fatigue, weakness, dizziness, headaches, shortness of breath, pale or yellow skin.

  • Bleeding tendency: easy bruising, frequent or prolonged nose/gum bleeding, heavy periods, oozing after procedures.

  • Clotting tendency: one-sided leg swelling/pain (possible DVT), sudden chest pain/shortness of breath (possible PE).

  • Hemolysis clues: jaundice, dark urine, gallstones.

  • Chemistry/organ clues: abdominal discomfort, abnormal liver tests, swelling, dehydration.

  • Pediatric red flags: persistent joint swelling/fever (autoimmune), abnormal newborn screen.

  • Family history/ancestry: relatives with anemia, hemoglobin variants, bleeding/clotting problems.

Why These Tests Matter

What they can do

  • Confirm or rule out anemia and help differentiate the cause (iron deficiency, B12/folate, hemolysis, thalassemia).

  • Detect hemoglobin variants (sickle cell, HbC/E, thalassemias) and clarify trait vs. disease.

  • Evaluate bleeding risk (platelets, PT/INR, aPTT, von Willebrand studies) and clotting risk (antiphospholipid antibodies, inherited thrombophilia).

  • Provide baseline and trend data to monitor treatment and disease activity.

What they cannot do

  • Replace a clinical exam or imaging when needed.

  • Determine treatment on their own—results must be interpreted by a clinician.

What These Tests Measure (at a glance)

  • Complete Blood Count (CBC ± Differential) & Reticulocyte Count: red/white cells, platelets, marrow response.

  • Iron Studies: ferritin, iron, TIBC/transferrin, transferrin saturation to assess deficiency or overload.

  • Hemoglobinopathy Testing: hemoglobin electrophoresis/HPLC, DNA reflex for alpha/beta thalassemia or complex variants.

  • Coagulation & Bleeding: PT/INR, aPTT, fibrinogen, D-dimer, platelet function, von Willebrand panel, factor assays, mixing studies.

  • Thrombophilia (Excessive Clotting): Factor V Leiden, Prothrombin gene, Protein C/S, Antithrombin, antiphospholipid antibodies (LA, aCL, β2GP1).

  • Chemistry/Context: CMP/BMP, bilirubin, LDH, haptoglobin, lactate, uric acid—clarify hemolysis, organ function, and metabolic drivers.

  • Blood Type & Antibody Screen: ABO/Rh(D), unexpected antibodies for transfusion readiness.

How the Testing Process Works

  1. Order online: choose a broad panel or targeted tests based on your symptoms.

  2. Visit a local lab: quick blood draw (and urine, if ordered).

  3. Get results fast: most post within 24–48 hours in your secure account.

  4. Review with your clinician: combine results with history, exam, and (if needed) imaging.

Interpreting Results (general guidance)

  • Low Hgb/Hct → anemia; use MCV/RDW + iron/B12/folate/hemolysis markers to narrow the cause.

  • High ferritin + high transferrin saturation → consider iron overload; genetics may follow.

  • Abnormal hemoglobin fractions → supports hemoglobinopathy/thalassemia; DNA clarifies.

  • Prolonged PT/INR or aPTT ± low fibrinogen → bleeding pathway issues; add factor/vWF studies.

  • Positive thrombophilia markers → inherited/acquired clot risk; timing and medications affect some assays.

  • Normal labs don’t always exclude disease—trends and clinical context matter.

Always interpret results with a qualified healthcare professional.

Choosing Panels vs. Individual Tests

  • Unclear symptoms or first look: start with a core blood-disorder screen (CBC with diff, iron studies, ± hemolysis markers and coag screen).

  • Suspected hemoglobinopathy/thalassemia: Electrophoresis/HPLC + CBC + iron; add DNA if needed.

  • Bleeding history: PT/INR, aPTT, fibrinogen ± vWD panel; add platelet function/factor assays as directed.

  • Clotting history/family risk: Thrombophilia panel (F5/F2 genetics; Protein C/S, Antithrombin; antiphospholipid antibodies).

  • Monitoring: repeat targeted markers (e.g., CRP/ESR, ferritin/%TS, D-dimer, CBC) per clinician guidance.

FAQs

Which tests are included in “All Blood Disorder Tests”?
A full menu across CBC, iron studies, hemoglobinopathy panels, coagulation/bleeding, thrombophilia, chemistry/context, and blood type/antibody screen.

Can one test diagnose my condition?
Usually not. Clinicians combine symptoms, exam, labs, and sometimes imaging to reach a diagnosis.

Do I need to fast?
Some iron and chemistry panels may recommend morning/fasting. Follow the prep on your order.

I’m on blood thinners—can I still test?
Yes, but anticoagulants can affect results (e.g., aPTT, anti-Xa). Your clinician will time/interpret tests accordingly.

I had a transfusion—will it change results?
Transfusions can mask hemoglobin patterns; your clinician may delay testing (or add DNA).

How quickly are results available?
Most labs post within 24–48 hours; specialized genetics may take longer.

Do I need a referral?
No referral is required to order through Ulta Lab Tests. Review results with your clinician.

Lab Tests Used to Detect Blood Conditions and Disorders

There are various kinds of blood disorders. The most frequent ones are blood cancers, clotting disorders, bleeding disorders, and anemias. Like many diseases, early diagnosis is critical for future treatment and care. Continue reading to learn more information concerning these disorders and what measures you can employ to deal with any symptoms you may face. 

What is a Blood Disorder? 

A blood disorder is an illness that hampers the ability of the blood to work properly. Blood disorders tend to impact the following parts of the blood.  

  • Red blood cells transport oxygen throughout the body and carry carbon dioxide to the lungs for expulsion. 
  • White blood cells: These cells are produced in the bone marrow and assist the body in fighting diseases and infections.  
  • Thrombocytes or platelets: These blood cells are colorless and assist the body in forming blood clots. 

Blood Disorder Types 

Here are the common types of blood disorders. 

  • Red blood cell disorders include aplastic anemia, vitamin deficiency anemia, and iron deficiency anemia.
  • White blood cell disorders include myelodysplastic syndrome, lymphoma, and leukemia.
  • Platelet disorders include Bernard-Soulier syndrome, Von Willebrand disease, and hemophilia. 

These disorders decrease the number of proteins, platelets, and cells in the blood, inhibiting a person’s bodily functions. Frequently, mutations can result in the parents transmuting these ailments to their kids. Additionally, lifestyles and medical conditions can also cause these disorders. 

Blood Disorder Symptoms 

Symptoms may be different depending on the type of blood disorder. Nevertheless, here are some of the most frequent blood disorder symptoms. 

  • A diminished red blood cell or hemoglobin concentration may result in anemia symptoms, including shortness of breath, weakness, and extreme fatigue.  
  • Diminished white blood cells may result in chronic infections and fever. 
  • People with decreased platelet levels may suffer from unusual bruising or bleeding. 

Blood Disorder Treatments 

Blood disorder treatments are contingent on the kind of blood disorder, just like blood disorder symptoms. The aim of treatment is to promote the production of blood cells, contain the immune system, and destroy anomalous cells. Here are a few treatments for blood disorders.  

  • Therapeutic options include supplements, antibiotics, and Nplate.
  • Patients may have to undergo a bone marrow transplant surgery for serious blood disorders or receive a blood transfusion.
