An Overview of the Thyroid Test

Thyroid blood tests are the lab tests that analyse the function of the thyroid gland. This gland is situated at the front of the neck and releases thyroid hormones. Triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) are the two types of thyroid hormones that are responsible for several bodily functions, such as regulating metabolic rate, growth stimulation, and deriving energy from food. If the thyroid gland is over or under-stimulated, then it may result in the development of several medical conditions.

Medical professionals suggest a person undergo this test to check the functioning of the thyroid gland. Some of the common symptoms that may call for a thyroid test are obesity, excessive tiredness, excessive sweating, a change in physical appearance, and irregular periods in women. Max Lab conducts thyroid blood tests in Behala, Kolkata and other cities at a very reasonable price to check for any abnormalities in your thyroid hormones.

Initially, the doctor may ask the person to get their thyroid level checked every 4–6 weeks. Thereafter, once in a while, depending upon the health condition of the person.

When is a Thyroid Test Prescribed?

A Thyroid test is prescribed by the doctor to check the condition of hypothyroidism, thyroiditis, Graves' disease, Hashimoto’s disease, and other medical conditions. The T3 test, T4 test, and TSH test are the types of thyroid tests that are part of the evaluation of thyroid hormones in the body.

The T3 test is used to check the severity of hyperthyroidism. Some of the common symptoms related to high T3 are unexplained weight loss, excessive sweating, and increased heart rate. The T4 test also measures the hormone level in the blood. Any imbalance indicates thyroid disease. Common symptoms of T4 imbalance are weight gain, fatigue, and cold. The TSH test is another test that measures the function of the thyroid gland. Common symptoms of issues in thyroid gland functioning are sweating, bloating, and nervousness. The doctor may ask for imaging test reports such as ultrasound, radioactive iodine uptake test, and thyroid scan in Behala, Kolkata or any other city for further diagnosis.
