TagDetails about the Thyroid #1 Blood Test
The Thyroid #1 Baseline Blood Test Panel is an important tool for evaluating healthy thyroid function and identifying potential thyroid disorders. This comprehensive panel includes tests for Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), T4, T3 Uptake, and Free Thyroxine (T4) Index and can help detect issues such as hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism. Symptoms such as fatigue, weight loss or gain, chills, painful joints and muscles, dry skin, thin/dry hair, irregular heart rate, constipation, depression and anxiety, mood swings, irregular menstrual periods, infertility, insomnia, and frequent bowel movements may indicate a thyroid disorder and may warrant a Thyroid #1 Baseline Blood Test Panel. Individuals who have a family history of thyroid disorders, women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, individuals taking thyroid supplements, and older adults may also benefit from this test. It is important to note that no fasting is required for this test, but patients should stop biotin consumption at least 72 hours prior to the collection. Test results are typically available within 1-2 days, but may take longer based on weather, holiday, or lab delays.
