Quick answer
The Pre-Marital Health Checkup Package costs ₹1,749 and covers 8 tests (25 parameters). An 8-test checkup for each partner before marriage. None of the tests needs fasting. Reports are usually ready the same day. Book home sample collection or visit any of our 45 centres.
A pre-marital checkup helps two people start a family with fewer surprises. This 8-test package is for each partner, booked separately, at any time in the months before a wedding. It answers: is there an infection, a blood group issue or a long-term condition that we should know about, and act on, before marriage and pregnancy?
Hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV and syphilis (VDRL) can all pass between partners or from mother to baby, and all can be silent. Knowing early makes treatment possible and, for hepatitis B, allows the other partner to be vaccinated. Blood group and Rh type help with pregnancy planning, as an Rh-negative woman with an Rh-positive partner may need extra care later. HbA1c and the thyroid profile look for two common conditions that can affect fertility and pregnancy. The CBC shows anaemia, and small red cells can be a hint of thalassaemia trait.
If both partners carry thalassaemia trait, a child can be seriously affected, so a doctor may advise a specific carrier test, which is not in this package. Fertility tests are not included either. Results are confidential, so each partner decides what to share. Please talk through any abnormal result with a doctor.

- 4 If you take a thyroid tablet, give the sample first and take the tablet after, unless your doctor advises otherwise.

Pre-Marital Health Checkup – FAQs
What is the price of the Pre-Marital Health Checkup Package?
₹1,749 at all 45 Live Line centres and for home sample collection.
Which tests are included in the Pre-Marital Health Checkup?
8 tests: Blood Group & Rh Typing Test, CBC Test (Complete Blood Count), HBsAg Test (Hepatitis B Surface Antigen) – Rapid, Anti-HCV Test (Hepatitis C Antibody) – Rapid, HIV 1 & 2 Antibody Test – Rapid, VDRL Test, HbA1c Test (Glycated Haemoglobin), Thyroid Profile Test (T3, T4, TSH).
Is fasting required for the Pre-Marital Health Checkup?
No. None of the tests in this package needs fasting.
Can we book the Couple Health Checkup instead?
The Couple Health Checkup is a yearly full body check for two adults, and it looks at organs, sugar, thyroid and cholesterol. This package covers one person and is about planning a marriage, so it has blood group and infection screening, which the Couple Health Checkup does not.
Will my results be shared with my partner or family?
No. Your results are confidential and go only to you or the person you authorise. Many couples choose to exchange reports, and a doctor can help you talk through them, but that decision is yours. Each partner receives their own report.
If one partner tests positive, can we still get married?
In most cases, yes. A reactive screening test needs confirmation first. Hepatitis B can be prevented in the partner by vaccination, hepatitis C can often be cured, and HIV can be controlled with treatment that greatly lowers the risk of passing it on. See a doctor together for advice.
Does this package test for thalassaemia?
Not directly. The CBC can show small red cells, which may hint at thalassaemia trait, but it cannot confirm it. If your doctor is concerned, or if thalassaemia runs in either family, ask about a dedicated carrier test before planning a pregnancy.
