A red top tube is typically used for growth hormone testing.
A lavender or purple top tube is typically used for a parathyroid hormone (PTH) test.
A lavender or pink-top tube is typically used for human growth hormone (HGH) testing.
A lavender or pink-top tube is typically used to draw a parathyroid hormone (PTH) test.
Typically, a lavender/purple top tube is used for female hormone tests, as it contains the anticoagulant EDTA which prevents blood clotting. It is important to consult with the specific laboratory or healthcare provider performing the test to confirm the correct tube color and collection procedure for female hormone testing.
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) is typically drawn in a lavender/purple-top tube, which contains the anticoagulant EDTA. It is important to check with the specific laboratory or facility to confirm the correct tube color for this test.

HbA1C test tubes are typically light purple in color, signifying that the blood sample is for a chemistry test.
The LH test is typically performed using a lavender or purple top tube, which contains an EDTA anticoagulant to prevent blood clotting. This type of tube is commonly used for hormone testing to assess fertility and monitor the menstrual cycle.
