Elite Protocol panel

Elite Protocol is for the man who wants the bloodwork without the consult bundle. The 72-marker panel mirrors what a sports-medicine or anti-ageing specialist would order at intake, and the expert-reviewed report flags which clusters matter, what they likely indicate, and what to do next.

If you want a doctor in the loop — formal MD consultations to review the report with you and discuss prescribing or shared-care arrangements — that lives on the Ultra tier. Elite Protocol is the testing-and-report tier: same depth on the panel, no consult component.

Hormonal Health on Elite Protocol carries the full HPG axis (total T, free T, SHBG, LH, FSH, prolactin, estradiol, DHT, DHEA-S, cortisol) — the markers needed to differentiate primary versus secondary hypogonadism, to model whether estrogen management is needed if therapy is initiated, and to track HPA-axis recovery if cortisol is part of the picture.

Cardiovascular & Longevity expands the lipid story (ApoB, Lp(a)) with hs-CRP and homocysteine — the silent risk markers that determine whether the 10-year cardiovascular trajectory needs intervention now rather than at 50. Thyroid carries the advanced markers (reverse T3, TPO antibodies) so the diagnosis covers conversion problems and autoimmune contributions, not just primary hypothyroidism.

Micronutrients (Vit D, B12, folate, iron, ferritin, magnesium) cover the deficiencies that consistently sit behind unexplained fatigue, low mood, and poor recovery. PSA is included as a baseline tumour-marker reference, particularly for men over 40.

An expert-reviewed PDF report typically lands within 5–7 business days of collection. Each flagged marker is explained in plain language: what it likely indicates, which clusters tend to move together, and what the sensible next step is — whether that is a lifestyle lever, a supplementation trial, or a conversation with your GP.

The report is structured so you can take it directly to your existing GP or specialist as a starting point for prescribing decisions. We do not prescribe; we deliver the diagnostic picture and the interpretation that lets your provider act on it.

Collection is at any Laverty (Healius) pathology centre across Australia. The 72-marker panel is collected in a single visit; advanced thyroid markers (reverse T3, TPO antibodies) extend the typical turnaround to 5–7 business days from draw.

Bloodwork-side rebates apply as with the Essential and Pro panels. We provide an itemised invoice with applicable Medicare item numbers so your private health fund can apply rebates under your extras allowance where eligible.
