Understanding Hypothyroidism / Hashimoto's Disease Panel in Noida

What is Hypothyroidism / Hashimoto's Disease Panel in Noida?

The Hypothyroidism / Hashimoto's Disease Panel is a specialized assessment tailored to provide a thorough evaluation of thyroid function and detect potential thyroid-related conditions such as hypothyroidism or hashimoto’s disease. It includes key tests such TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Ultrasensitive, Anti-TPO Antibody (Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody) and Thyroxine (T4) Free, offering valuable insights into your thyroid health. This test is widely available at an affordable price in Noida with Tata 1mg labs.

Doctors may advise the Hypothyroidism / Hashimoto's Disease Panel if symptoms suggestive of hypothyroidism present, such as unexplained weight changes, persistent fatigue, mood swings, irregular menstrual cycles, etc. It is also useful for individuals with a family history of thyroid disorders, those experiencing fertility challenges, or those undergoing treatments that impact thyroid health. For pregnant women, the panel is crucial in monitoring thyroid health to prevent complications that could affect both the mother and the developing baby.

Fasting is not required for the Hypothyroidism / Hashimoto's Disease Panel. Maintain the continuity of taking your thyroid medications on the day of the test unless otherwise advised by the doctor.

What does Hypothyroidism / Hashimoto's Disease Panel measure?

Contains 3 tests

The Hypothyroidism / Hashimoto's Disease Panel measures several critical aspects of thyroid function and health. It includes the TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Ultrasensitive test, which assesses the pituitary gland's ability to regulate thyroid hormone production by the thyroid gland; Thyroxine (T4) Free test measures the levels of unbound thyroxine, a hormone crucial for regulating metabolism, energy, and various bodily functions. Additionally, the Anti-TPO Antibody (Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody) test detects the presence of antibodies that may indicate an autoimmune attack on the thyroid gland, such as in Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Together, these tests provide a comprehensive evaluation of thyroid function, help diagnose thyroid disorders like hypothyroidism and autoimmune thyroiditis, and guide appropriate treatment and management strategies.

TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Ultrasensitive

The TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Ultrasensitive test measures the levels of TSH hormone in the blood. TSH is produced by the pituitary gland located in the brain. Its function is to stimulate and regulate the functioning of the thyroid gland. It signals the thyroid gland to increase or decrease the production of thyroid hormones T3 and T4 (essential for regulating our body’s metabolism, temperature, heart rate, and growth) when their levels are low or high, respectively. Therefore, when the levels of T3 & T4 decrease, the pituitary gland is stimulated to release TSH. This high TSH level, in turn, stimulates the thyroid gland to release more thyroid hormones (T3 & T4); the vice-versa happens when the levels of thyroid hormones increase.

Anti-TPO Antibody(Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody)

In autoimmune thyroid disorders, such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Graves’ disease, the immune system produces antibodies against thyroid peroxidase (TPO), an enzyme found in the thyroid gland. An Anti-TPO Antibody(Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody) test detects and measures the levels of these anti-thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO) antibodies in your blood.

TPO is found in the cells of the thyroid follicle and helps produce the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) or triiodothyronine (T3). The presence of anti-TPO antibodies indicates autoimmune activity against the thyroid gland. These antibodies contribute to inflammation and damage to thyroid cells, thus leading to thyroid dysfunction.

Thyroxine - Free

The Thyroxine - Free test measures the free form of thyroxine (T4) hormone made by the thyroid gland. T4 hormone exists in the blood in two forms: bound (attached to proteins) and free (not attached to proteins). Most of the T4 hormone circulating in the blood is bound to proteins and only a small part is free. A delicate balance of bound and free T4 should be maintained to ensure the proper functioning of the body.
