The presence of Zinc in our blood cells holds a lot of importance as it is directly responsible for maintaining the structure of several hormones like estrogen, thyroxin, etc. along with Vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin D.
Due to this, most doctors suggest taking a proper Zinc blood test to understand whether the percentage of Zinc in our bodies is within the prescribed range or not.

During a Zinc blood test, a healthcare professional takes a blood sample from your arm, which is also known as venipuncture. A lab expert known as a phlebotomist conducts this process using a needle. He locates a vein on your arm and inserts the needle to draw blood. The blood sample will be transferred into a test tube and will be taken safely to the labs for the test.
The lab technicians will test the sample by following established standards, to ensure correct reports. Thyrocare Labs has a team of professionals who are skilled and experienced. After the testing is done, your reports are sent to your email within 1-2 days. On the other hand, if you need a hard copy of the report, expect the delivery of the same within 3-5 business days.
