Anti Thyroid Antibodies Panel near me in Visakhapatnam

An Anti Thyroid Antibodies Panel is a set of blood tests that assesses the presence of specific antibodies associated with autoimmune thyroid disorders. These antibodies are directed against thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin and are called as anti-thyroid peroxidase (TPO) and anti-thyroglobulin (TG) respectively. The presence of these antibodies may indicate autoimmune thyroid conditions such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and Grave’s disease. 

Available at an affordable price in Visakhapatnam with Tata 1 mg labs, this panel aids in the diagnosis and management of autoimmune thyroid disorders, guides treatment decisions, assesses thyroid health, and helps facilitate a tailored care approach for individuals with thyroid-related autoimmune conditions. It is often performed alongside other thyroid tests such as TSH, T3, and T4 to provide a more comprehensive view of thyroid function and to diagnose autoimmune thyroid disorders. Usually, no special preparation is required before undertaking an Anti Thyroid Antibodies Panel. However, if done alongside thyroid function tests (TSH, T3, T4), inform your doctor about medications or supplements you are taking. While maintaining the continuity of your thyroid medications, avoid biotin (Vitamin B7), an over-the-counter supplement two days before an Anti Thyroid Antibodies Panel, as it can impact the test results.
