Thyroid Test TSH, T3 Total, Free T3, T4 Total and Free T4 Tests Reports and their explanation.
The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck, responsible for regulating metabolism and producing hormones. To assess thyroid function, medical professionals often perform a thyroid test, which is an essential diagnostic tool in identifying thyroid disorders. In this lesson we shall discuss simple procedures of a thyroid test, the different types of thyroid tests, and how to interpret the results of thyroid tests?
The thyroid produces two main hormones: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These hormones are involved in the regulation of metabolism, energy production, body temperature, and other critical bodily functions.
When the thyroid gland malfunctions, it can lead to two main conditions:
Hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism
1. Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland is under active and does not produce enough thyroid hormones. It can cause symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, cold sensitivity, and depression.
2. Hyperthyroidism condition results from an overactive thyroid gland, leading to excessive production of thyroid hormones. Common symptoms include weight loss, increased heart rate, anxiety, and tremors.
