Which Screening Package Is Right for You?
Author: Dr Lauren Holland
Preventive health screening isn’t just for when you feel unwell. It’s about understanding your body before symptoms appear. At Marylebone Diagnostic Centre (MDC), our screening packages are designed to match every stage of life – so you can stay ahead of potential risks and make informed decisions about your wellbeing.
Why Regular Screening Matters
Many serious conditions, from diabetes to heart disease, begin silently.
A quick set of diagnostic tests can detect subtle changes long before they cause problems.
By monitoring your health regularly, you gain time — the most powerful advantage in medicine.
At MDC, our blood tests, hormone profiles, and wellness panels are reviewed by experienced clinicians under the Marylebone High Standard, ensuring precision and clarity every time.
In Your 30s – Building the Foundation
Your 30s are about prevention and awareness. Lifestyle factors, stress, and nutrition begin to show in your blood and hormone balance.
Recommended tests:
- Comprehensive Health Profile – checks blood count, liver, kidney, and thyroid function.
- Vitamin & Nutrient Panel – ensures optimal levels for energy and immunity.
- Hormone Check (for men and women) – identifies imbalances that may affect mood, metabolism, and fertility.
- Cholesterol and Lipid Profile – monitors cardiovascular health early.
Why it matters:
Small imbalances are easy to correct now – but harder to manage later. Preventive testing in your 30s helps you stay in peak health.
In Your 40s – Spotting Subtle Changes
Your 40s are a key time to focus on metabolism, cardiovascular risk, and reproductive health.
Hormonal shifts become more pronounced, and early screening can prevent future disease.
Recommended tests:
- Executive Health Screening – a full profile covering blood count, liver, kidney, glucose, and cholesterol.
- Hormone and Fertility Profiles – especially for those planning families or noticing energy or libido changes.
- Cancer Risk Markers – optional CA125 (ovarian), PSA (prostate), and other tumour markers.
- Thyroid Function Test – fatigue and weight changes often link to thyroid imbalance.
Why it matters:
This decade is about early detection. Regular testing helps you manage stress, nutrition, and hormonal transitions effectively.
In Your 50s and Beyond – Proactive and Preventive
After 50, your risk for chronic conditions increases – but regular screening can help you stay in control.
Recommended tests:
- Longevity & Cancer Screening Profile – combining cancer markers, heart risk panels, and vitamin levels.
- Prostate Health Profile (for men) – includes PSA and related markers.
- Bone and Vitamin D Testing (for women) – monitors post-menopausal changes and bone strength.
- Comprehensive Cardiometabolic Profile – evaluates blood sugar, cholesterol, and inflammation markers.
Why it matters:
Early detection keeps you one step ahead of potential issues. Many conditions are easily managed when found early – and our fast results mean you can take action quickly.
Optional Add-Ons at Any Age
- Genetic Predisposition Screening – understand your hereditary risk for diseases.
- Allergy and Intolerance Testing – identify hidden causes of fatigue, bloating, or skin irritation.
- Fertility Preservation & Hormone Optimisation – for individuals planning pregnancy or managing menopause/andropause.
