Checks your overall health by measuring red cells, white cells, hemoglobin and platelets.
1.Hemoglobin (Hb)
Measures the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells. Low levels may indicate anemia.
2.Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count
Evaluates the number of red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen.
3.White Blood Cell (WBC) Count
Helps identify infections, inflammation, and immune system disorders.
4.Platelet Count
Assesses the blood's ability to clot and prevent excessive bleeding.
5.Hematocrit (PCV)
Measures the percentage of blood made up of red blood cells.
6.Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV)
Helps classify different types of anemia.
7.Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH)
Helps classify different types of anemia.
8.Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC)
Helps classify different types of anemia.
9.Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW)
Measures how much your red blood cells vary in size.
10.RDW-CV
Measures the variation in red blood cell size, expressed as a percentage.
11.Mean Platelet Volume (MPV)
Measures the average size of your platelets.
12.ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate)
Measures inflammation within the body.
13.Neutrophils
Part of the differential white cell count, used to assess immune response.
14.Lymphocytes
Part of the differential white cell count, used to assess immune response.
15.Monocytes
Part of the differential white cell count, used to assess immune response.
16.Eosinophils
Part of the differential white cell count, used to assess immune response.
17.Basophils
Part of the differential white cell count, used to assess immune response.
18.Absolute Neutrophil Count
The actual number of neutrophils in a unit of blood.
19.Absolute Lymphocyte Count
The actual number of lymphocytes in a unit of blood.
20.Absolute Monocyte Count
The actual number of monocytes in a unit of blood.
21.Absolute Eosinophil Count
The actual number of eosinophils in a unit of blood.
22.Absolute Basophil Count
The actual number of basophils in a unit of blood.
23.Mentzer Index
A calculated index from your red cell values that doctors use to help understand the cause of anemia.
24.RDWI
A calculated index from your red cell values that doctors use to help understand the cause of anemia.
25.GK Index
A calculated index from your red cell values that doctors use to help understand the cause of anemia.
Also known as: Complete Blood Count (CBC), Hemogram with ESR
A Complete Hemogram Test, commonly known as a Complete Blood Count (CBC), is one of the most commonly prescribed blood tests to evaluate your overall health. It measures different components of your blood, including red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBC), hemoglobin, platelets, and several important blood indices.
This test helps detect infections, anemia, inflammation, blood disorders, nutritional deficiencies, and immune system abnormalities. It is also frequently included in routine preventive health checkups and pre-surgical evaluations.
A Complete Hemogram (CBC) is a blood test that evaluates the number and quality of different blood cells circulating in your body.
The test helps doctors assess:
A Complete Hemogram Test is recommended for:
Your doctor may recommend a CBC if you have:
No fasting is required for a Complete Hemogram Test.
Before your test:
| Parameter | Normal range |
|---|---|
| Hemoglobin | Male: 13–17 g/dL, Female: 12–15 g/dL |
| RBC Count | 4.2–6.1 million/µL |
| WBC Count | 4,000–11,000 cells/µL |
| Platelets | 150,000–450,000/µL |
| Hematocrit | 36–50% |
| ESR | Male: 0–15 mm/hr, Female: 0–20 mm/hr |
Reference ranges can differ between labs. Your report shows the range used by the lab.
No. A Complete Hemogram Test does not require fasting.
Reports are generally available within 24–30 hours.
Yes. OnHealth provides convenient home blood sample collection in the cities we serve.
Yes. Changes in white blood cell counts can help identify infections and inflammation.

It is often the first laboratory investigation recommended when patients have symptoms such as fever, fatigue, weakness, dizziness, unexplained weight loss, or frequent infections.
Benefits of a complete hemogram test:
Healthy adults can include it in their annual health checkup, while people with chronic conditions may require more frequent testing as advised by their doctor.
