This bundle includes the Genotype Blood Test, which identifies your haemoglobin genotype and carrier status, and the Blood Group Test, which identifies your ABO blood group and RhD status.

No fasting needed. Eat and drink as normal before your appointment. Drink water beforehand so the sample is easier to take. Please tell us if you have had a blood transfusion in the last 3 months, as it can affect the results.

Genotype vs blood group

Why You Need Both Tests

Your blood group cannot tell you your genotype, and your genotype cannot tell you your blood group. If you want to know both, you need both tests.

Who it is for

Who Books This Bundle?

Many adults in the UK do not know their genotype or their blood group. This bundle gives you both results from one booking, at a lower price than booking the tests separately.

  • Couples planning to marry or start a family
  • Anyone who has never had their genotype or blood group checked
  • People with sickle cell disease or trait in the family
  • Anyone who has lost an old result and wants a new record
How it works

How the Bundle Works

  1. Book online

    Book the Genotype + Blood Group Test bundle and choose your appointment option.

  2. Give a blood sample

    A trained phlebotomist takes your blood sample at your appointment. It only takes a few minutes.

  3. Laboratory analysis

    The laboratory identifies your haemoglobin genotype and your blood group.

  4. Get your results

    You receive both results to keep. Share your genotype with your GP if it shows a carrier or sickle cell result.

Before your test

How to Prepare

There is very little you need to do before these tests.

  • No fasting needed – eat and drink as normal
  • Drink water beforehand so the sample is easier to take
  • Wear a top with sleeves that roll up easily
  • Tell us if you have had a blood transfusion in the last 3 months, as it can affect the results
FAQs

Genotype + Blood Group Test: FAQs

What is included in the Genotype + Blood Group Test bundle?

Two tests: the Genotype Blood Test, which identifies your haemoglobin genotype such as AA, AS, AC, SS or SC, and the Blood Group Test, which tells you your ABO blood group and whether you are RhD positive or negative.

How much does the bundle cost?

The bundle is £179. Booked separately, the Genotype Blood Test is £90 and the Blood Group Test is £105, so the bundle saves you £16.

Is genotype the same as blood group?

No. Your genotype describes your haemoglobin type, such as AA or AS. Your blood group describes your ABO group and RhD status, such as O positive. They are separate tests, and one cannot tell you the other.

Why test genotype and blood group together?

Many people want to know both, for example before marriage, when planning a family or for their own records. Booking the bundle covers both tests in one booking and costs less than booking them separately.

Do I need to fast before the tests?

No. You can eat and drink as normal before both tests.

Do I need a GP referral?

No. You can book the bundle directly online without a referral.

Can my genotype or blood group change?

No. Both are inherited and stay the same throughout your life. A recent blood transfusion can temporarily affect the results, so tell us if you have had one in the last 3 months.

What should I do if my genotype result shows I am a carrier?

Being a carrier does not usually affect your own health. Share the result with your GP, especially if you are planning a family, so your partner can be offered testing and you can be referred for genetic counselling if needed.

Great service. I’m not the best with needles, however, Jo made me feel comfortable and at ease which made the whole process much more tolerable. 5 stars from me.
