What’s included in a Thyroid Function test?
This test assesses the function of your thyroid gland by measuring the levels of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) and Free T4 (FT4).
Thyroid disorders are common but often go undiagnosed. These tests are primarily used to determine if you have an underactive thyroid (Hypothyroidism) or an overactive thyroid (Hyperthyroidism), both of which can cause symptoms such as fatigue, mood changes, and weight fluctuations.
This test is also beneficial for individuals taking medication for thyroid conditions (Hypothyroidism or Hyperthyroidism) who wish to monitor their thyroid hormone levels.
