Thyroid TSH Test - Check for Hypothyroidism Easily
Discover if you have an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) with our quick and easy Thyroid TSH Test. This test measures Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) levels in your blood, indicating potential thyroid imbalances. A TSH level above 5 μIU/ml suggests hypothyroidism and may require further medical consultation.
What Does the Thyroid TSH Test Measure?
The Thyroid TSH Test assesses the amount of TSH produced by the pituitary gland. TSH signals the thyroid to produce essential hormones, T4 and T3, which are vital for metabolism, energy, and growth. Elevated TSH levels can point to an underactive thyroid, a condition that impacts overall health.
