Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's):
1. What is included in a Thyroid Profile test?
This test measures TSH, T3, and T4 hormones to evaluate thyroid function. It helps diagnose hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and monitor ongoing treatment.
2. Why should I have my Thyroid hormones tested?
Thyroid imbalances can lead to tiredness, mood swings and changes in weight. It also goes a long way in helping you manage Hashimoto’s disease or Graves’ disease effectively.
3. Why is it important to do all three tests (TSH, T3, T4) together?
The pituitary gland function is reflected by the levels of TSH while the T3 and T4 reveal performance levels of the thyroid. Together they provide detailed overview – like if you have hypothyroidism then your TSH rises while your T4 falls.
4. How often should one repeat thyroid tests?
For diagnosed patients: Every 6-12 weeks during treatment adjustment. For screening: Every 1-2 years if high-risk (family history, pregnancy, or symptoms).
5. Is fasting required before this test?
No fasting is needed. You can take the test anytime but tell the technician if you are on thyroid medication so that they prepare it accurately.
