Free Thyroid Profile Test

The Free Thyroid Profile test measures the levels of Free T3 (Triiodothyronine), Free T4 (Thyroxine), and TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) in the blood. These hormones regulate metabolism, energy levels, heart rate, and overall body function.

Why is the Free Thyroid Profile Test Important?

• High Free T3 & T4 with low TSH may indicate hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid), causing weight loss, anxiety, and rapid heartbeat.
• Low Free T3 & T4 with high TSH may indicate hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), leading to weight gain, fatigue, and slow metabolism.
• Helps diagnose thyroid disorders, hormone imbalances, and metabolic issues.

When is the Test Recommended?

• If a person has symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, hair loss, mood swings, or irregular heartbeat.
• For individuals with a family history of thyroid disease or autoimmune conditions.
• For monitoring thyroid function in people with thyroid disorders or on thyroid medications.
