This test measures a specific substance, enzyme, protein or cellular feature in the sample provided, and is usually requested to answer a particular question raised by symptoms, another result or a specialist’s assessment.

Understanding your Melatonin (Serum) results
Your result is reported against the laboratory’s reference range for your age and sex, and any value outside that range is flagged on the report. Specialist assays sometimes have narrow clinical uses, so the result is best read in the context of why it was requested. We do not provide clinical interpretation; a result is not a diagnosis, and its meaning depends on your history and symptoms, so discuss it with your GP or a clinician.
Laboratory values are one part of a clinical picture, and any unexpected result should be discussed with the clinician who is looking after the wider question.
