Overview of the Folate Test

Folate is a vital nutrient for the formation of red blood cells and the growth of metabolism and cells in the body. Folate also helps in the production of DNA, the particle carrying genetic information for the growth and functioning of an organism in the human body, carrying genetic information. It is vitamin B9 found in citrus fruits and green vegetables. Not having sufficient folate can cause a deficiency of red blood cells or low vitamin B9 in just a few weeks. Lack of folate during pregnancy can lead to birth abnormalities. Deficiency of this vitamin may also occur in those with genetic mutations or conditions that prevent the body from absorbing or changing folate to its useful form. A folate blood test in Prabhadevi, Mumbai is performed to check the level of folate in the blood. The test helps doctors assess whether a person’s body has a normal range of folate serum and detect conditions caused by the deficiency. Complications of low folate serum levels may include:

Peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage that may lead to weakness, numbness, and pain)

Low levels of platelets and white blood cells

Megaloblastic anaemia, indicating that RBCs are higher than the normal range

Severe birth abnormalities in the brain and spinal cord of a developing foetus.
