Lipoprotein(a)
£25.00
Largely set by your genes and stable across your lifetime. Most people test it once.
Lipoprotein(a) in the Biomarker Guide — what it is, why it is tested, and what moves the number.
Add-on markers can only be added to venous samples.
Timing
No fasting needed and no particular time of day. Lp(a) is set genetically and barely moves across a lifetime, which is why it is usually measured once rather than tracked.
Turnaround: the lab reports this test within 24 hours of receiving your sample, counted in working days. Most samples reach them within about 3 days of posting. Full detail on our Turnaround Times page.
