T3 is a thyroid test that gives you an insight into how your thyroid is doing. It may be helpful to have a T3 test to measure your levels of free triiodothyronine T3 levels if you have symptoms of thyroid problems, such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. It may also be appropriate in the follow-up of possible treatment of thyroid disease. It is important to note that free T3 alone is not enough to diagnose thyroid problems and additional testing of free T4 and TSH may be required.

The thyroid is a hormone producing gland that regulates metabolism, energy levels, and several important bodily functions. It produces the hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which affect the heart, muscles, digestion, and temperature regulation. Thyroid markers are tested to assess thyroid function and detect any abnormalities. They can provide important information about hormone balance and identify conditions such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.

Before visiting a reception for sampling, you need to do the following:

Activate referral and select reception

To activate your referral, simply follow the instructions that you will receive via email after completing the purchase. The email contains an activation code, by clicking on the link in the email you enter the flow to fill in any information, activate the referral and select reception in the sample answer service zample.

Before the sampling

  • Medicines and dietary supplements: Avoid intake of any iron tablets on the same day as the test if your test contains the marker iron. Postpone the intake of any thyroid medication until after the sample is taken and avoid dietary supplements or drugs with a high content of biotin before tests relating to thyroid markers.
  • Rest for 15 minutes in place on the sampling unit.
  • Bring valid identification.

The referral is available digitally at the sampling unit after you activate it, follow the instructions you receive via email. Here you can read our guidelines before taking samples.

T3, or triiodothyronine, is an active thyroid hormone that regulates the body's metabolism, energy metabolism, temperature control, and affects the heart, muscles, and nervous system. T3 has a stronger biological effect than T4 but is found in lower concentrations in the blood.

Normal levels of free T3 (fT3) are usually between 3.5–6.5 pmol/L, but reference values ​​can vary slightly between laboratories. Total T3, which includes protein-bound T3, is often between 1.2–2.8 nmol/L.

T3 testing is performed when hyperthyroidism is suspected or when TSH and T4 do not explain the patient's symptoms. The test is particularly useful when T3-dominant hyperthyroidism is suspected or when monitoring treatment with T3 preparations.

A high T3 level may indicate hyperthyroidism, where the thyroid gland produces too much hormone. Symptoms include palpitations, weight loss, sweating, and nervousness. High T3 is often seen in Graves' disease or in overtreatment with thyroid hormone.

Low T3 may indicate hypothyroidism or a temporary downregulation of metabolism in the event of a serious illness (non-thyroidal illness syndrome). Symptoms of low T3 include fatigue, weight gain, feeling cold, and a slow metabolism.

T3 treatment involves administering the active thyroid hormone triiodothyronine in the form of the drug Liothyronine. The treatment is used for hypothyroidism, usually as a complement to T4 treatment (Levaxin), when the patient does not become symptom-free despite TSH and T4 being within normal limits.

Some people have difficulty converting T4 to T3 in the body, which can lead to persistent symptoms such as fatigue, chills and low metabolism, despite correct treatment with T4. In such cases, supplementing with T3 can help restore the balance.

Because T3 has a stronger and faster effect than T4, the treatment requires careful dosing and regular follow-up with blood tests. Excessively high levels of T3 can lead to side effects such as palpitations, anxiety and sleep problems. T3 treatment should always be done in consultation with a doctor with experience in thyroid treatment.
