Title: Thyroid Function Test Package
Description: The Thyroid Function Test Package includes the “T4, Free”, “T3, Free”, and “Thyroid Stimulating Hormone” tests. These tests are performed to assess the functioning of the thyroid gland. The “T4, Free” and “T3, Free” test measures the level of free thyroxine T4 and T3 in the bloodstream, while the “Thyroid Stimulating Hormone” test measures the level of TSH, a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that stimulates the thyroid gland. These tests help in diagnosing conditions such as hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, and other thyroid disorders. Understanding the thyroid function through these tests can help in planning appropriate treatment and monitoring the effectiveness of thyroid medications.
- Instructions: Fasting for 6–8 hours before the test is usually required. Always follow specific instructions provided by your physician for the most accurate results.
