Important: not a diagnostic service
This website and app do not identify diseases, determine treatment, prescribe medication, set doses, or provide certainty that someone is healthy or ill. Do not use this information to delay seeking help.
1. Purpose of the information
LHP materials are created for general education and early interpretation. Their purpose is to help users recognize terms, types of tests, the context of numbers, follow-up questions, and reasons to seek confirmation.
Information on the website does not create a doctor-patient relationship and is not medical advice tailored to an individual's condition.
2. Why one result is not enough
Results can be affected by the method and device, conditions before the test, time of testing, units, the laboratory's reference ranges, age, sex, pregnancy, medications, supplements, symptoms, existing illnesses, and other test results.
The ranges or labels in LHP are not always the same as laboratory ranges or health facility guidelines. If a result differs from your laboratory report, use the report and the guidance of a health professional as your primary reference.
3. Limitations of the six parameters
Uric acid
Uric acid above the reference range does not automatically mean gout. Joint pain or swelling also has many possible causes.
Blood glucose
Fasting, random, and two-hour post-meal blood glucose have different contexts. A two-hour post-meal entry in LHP is not automatically the same as a formal OGTT. High or low results need to be read together with symptoms and the guidance of a health professional.
Hemoglobin
Low hemoglobin does not automatically mean iron deficiency. Bleeding, infection, chronic disease, blood disorders, and other factors can play a role.
Total cholesterol
Total cholesterol is only one part of the assessment. LDL, HDL, triglycerides, blood pressure, age, smoking, diabetes, family history, and clinical conditions can change the risk context.
Blood pressure
One blood pressure reading is not a diagnosis. Measurement technique, body position, timing, anxiety, the device, and repetition affect the result.
BMI
BMI is a screening tool and does not measure body composition directly. Children and adolescents should be assessed in the context of age and sex. LHP does not provide adult weight-loss programs for children.
4. Before entering or sharing results
- Double-check the numbers, decimal points, units, type of test, and date.
- Do not enter other people's data without proper authorization and consent.
- Remember that screenshots or images of results may contain names and health information.
- Store and share results only with those who genuinely need to know.
- Bring the original report, a list of medications/supplements, symptoms, and your measurement history when you consult.
5. What to do when a result is concerning
Do not draw conclusions from a color, a label, or a single number in the app alone. Repeat or confirm the test as directed by a health professional. If a result is very different from your usual condition or comes with symptoms, contact a health facility.
Do not stop medication, change doses, start high-dose supplements, or follow extreme diets based on the website or app.
6. Warning signs and emergencies
Do not wait for the website or app to respond if there is chest pain, severe shortness of breath, fainting, seizures, severe confusion, weakness or numbness on one side, trouble speaking or seeing, active bleeding, blue lips, or any other condition that feels life-threatening.
If someone is unconscious, having a seizure, very confused, or unable to swallow, do not force food or drink by mouth. Call your local emergency services and follow the responder's instructions.
7. Pregnancy, children, and special conditions
Pregnancy is not supported as a specific context in this version of LHP. Interpretation for children and adolescents has limitations and must not be treated as a complete pediatric assessment. People with chronic illnesses, regular medication use, kidney/liver disorders, or other special conditions should seek an assessment from a health professional who knows their history.
8. Articles, sources, and updates
LHP articles are educational adaptations or summaries with attribution and a source ID. The original sources remain the more complete reference. Medical knowledge can change, so materials, rules, and the app may be updated after editorial or clinical review or changes to sources.
9. Consent to use
By continuing to read or use LHP information, you understand the educational purpose and the limitations above. If you need a diagnosis, treatment, a complete clinical interpretation, or immediate help, contact a health professional or the appropriate emergency services.
10. Contact
Questions about the app or website content can be sent to emailkerjaannyahabib@gmail.com or +6287865240934. The website contact is not a substitute for emergency services and is not a channel for real-time medical consultation.
