First Milk Blood (Dry Blood Spots) Test

First Milk Blood Analysis

First milk blood analysis is a simple, non-invasive test that can be used to measure the levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and omega-3 index in a lactating or pregnant woman's blood. DHA is a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid that is important for brain development and function. The omega-3 index is a measure of the total amount of DHA and EPA in the blood.

The first milk blood analysis is performed by collecting a small sample of blood from the mother's arm. The sample is then dried and sent to a laboratory for testing. The results of the test are usually available within 24-72 hours.
