Information

In this thyroid test, the thyroid hormones T3, T4 and TSH are analyzed. The test is recommended for those who experience symptoms that may be related to an imbalance in the thyroid hormones. Thyroid disorders are common and can cause many different symptoms, such as fatigue, weight gain, heart palpitations, and hair loss. Over 500,000 Swedes have a thyroid gland that does not function optimally. Scheduling a thyroid test can help rule out thyroid disorders as the cause of poor health. T3, T4 and TSH are all thyroid hormones that are analyzed to examine the function of the thyroid gland.

The thyroid hormones T3, T4 and TSH

T3, or triiodothyronine, is a hormone produced by the thyroid gland. T3 plays a central role in the regulation of metabolism in the body by influencing how much energy the body uses.

T4, or thyroxine, is another hormone produced by the thyroid gland. T4 is involved in the regulation of metabolism and affects how much energy the body uses.

TSH, or thyroid-stimulating hormone, is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland, a gland in the brain. TSH plays an important role in the regulation of thyroid function by signaling to the thyroid gland to produce more or less of its hormones.

Symptoms of thyroid disorders?

Symptoms of thyroid disorders can vary widely and are sometimes confused with other health issues. Therefore, it is important to analyze the thyroid hormones T3, T4, and TSH to evaluate the thyroid's function. Your values can reveal any deviations and be the key to improving your health condition and quality of life. Your thyroid hormones play a central role in regulating metabolism in the body. Imbalances in these hormones can affect how much energy the body uses and thus impact your metabolism, energy levels, and much more.

Who is recommended for the thyroid test?

The test is recommended for those experiencing symptoms that may be linked to thyroid disorders or for those who wish to rule out any thyroid-related issues as the cause of a specific health condition.
