Thyroid Test (Thyroid Function Test – T3, T4, TSH)

 Description

The Thyroid Test is one of the most important hormone tests used to check the functioning of your thyroid gland — a small butterfly-shaped gland in your neck that controls your body’s metabolism, energy levels, and growth.

Imbalance in thyroid hormones can lead to symptoms like fatigue, weight gain or loss, mood swings, irregular periods, and hair fall.
This test helps your doctor diagnose underactive (hypothyroidism) or overactive (hyperthyroidism) thyroid and monitor ongoing treatment.

Tests Included in Thyroid Panel

• T3 (Triiodothyronine) – Measures active thyroid hormone level

• T4 (Thyroxine) – Checks overall thyroid hormone production

• TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) – Evaluates thyroid gland performance

(Sometimes an extended panel also includes Free T3, Free T4, and Anti-TPO if required)
