- Description
- Scope of package
The thyroid PLUS package allows for the most comprehensive assessment of thyroid function (thyroid hormones) and antibody levels.
The thyroid gland is a gland that produces hormones responsible for many important functions in the body, of which, in an adult, it is very important to influence metabolic processes. Therefore, symptoms suggesting thyroid dysfunction and thus suggesting the need to diagnose it may include: fatigue and drowsiness, weakness, concentration disorders or excessive nervousness, anxiety, irritability.
What are the signs of increased and decreased glandular function?
The most common symptoms of hyperthyroidism are:
- weight loss with persistent or even increased appetite;
- rapid heartbeat, palpitations, increased blood pressure;
- soft, warm and moist skin with a tendency to sweat;
- trembling;
- insomnia, anxiety, emotional tension, irritability, tearfulness;
- bulging eyes;
- frequent bowel movements or diarrhea.
However, the symptoms of impaired thyroid function (hypothyroidism) are:
- weight gain, even with decreased appetite, feeling swollen;
- slow heart rate and low blood pressure;
- pale, swollen, cool skin;
- depressed mood, drowsiness, memory impairment;
- constipation;
- thinning or loss of hair from the outer part of the eyebrows;
- constantly feeling cold.
The basic thyroid package includes seven tests:
- TSH- The test allows to determine the level of thyrotropic hormone in the blood - a pituitary hormone that stimulates the thyroid gland. Based on the result, hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism can be determined.
- fT3- This is one of the main thyroid hormones. The action and normal level of this hormone is essential for the proper functioning of the entire body-it controls the activities of most organs, supports metabolic processes and the functioning of the central nervous system.
- fT4- The test allows to determine the level of free thyroxine - a hormone that performs an important function in the body - among other things, regulates metabolism.
- T3 (triiodothyronine)
- Thyroxine TT4- T4 thyroxine is a precursor to the formation of the much more biologically active hormone, T3, although both have very similar effects on the body - only to varying degrees of intensity. These hormones are responsible for regulating the pace and intensity of metabolic processes throughout the body.
- Anti-TPO test- Testing the level of anti-TPO antibodies, i.e. antibodies against thyroid protein - thyroperoxidase. In a healthy person, ATPO is not present, so any result should be consulted with a doctor.
- TG test (thyroglobulin)- The test is performed in suspected autoimmune thyroid diseases - it is detected in disorders of this gland.
