Results for hemochromatosis testing, which often includes serum ferritin, transferrin saturation, and genetic testing, typically take about 1 to 2 weeks. The exact timeframe may vary depending on the laboratory and the specific tests ordered. Once the results are available, your healthcare provider will discuss them with you and any necessary next steps.
