IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1) Test
IGF-1 is one of the most reliable ways to understand how your body’s growth hormone system is functioning. Unlike growth hormone itself, which fluctuates throughout the day, IGF-1 levels remain steady, giving a clearer picture of your long-term balance. IGF-1 supports energy, lean muscle, bone strength, and repair – making it a vital marker for health, performance, and healthy ageing.

Essential information about your test
What's in the test:
What we measure:
- IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1) – IGF-1 is a hormone primarily produced in the liver in response to growth hormone (GH) stimulation. It reflects overall GH activity and helps regulate growth, metabolism, and tissue repair. Measuring IGF-1 can help evaluate pituitary function, assess suspected GH deficiency or excess (e.g., acromegaly), and provide insight into unexplained fatigue, weakness, or metabolic changes.
