The thyroid gland is placed in the front of the neck and produces T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine) hormones. Thyroid hormones affect virtually every organ in the body, including the heart, central nervous system, autonomic nervous system, bones, and metabolism. T3 and T4 hormones are important parts of the endocrine system.

TSH, or thyroid stimulating hormone, is produced by the pituitary gland, placed at the base of the brain. TSH controls and regulates the secretion of thyroid hormones.

If the thyroid hormone secretion is low (hypothyroidism), the pituitary gland releases more TSH to stimulate the thyroid gland. Again,  when the secretion of thyroid hormones increases (hyperthyroidism), the pituitary gland stops releasing TSH into the blood. By measuring TSH levels in the blood it can be found if the thyroid gland is producing the right level of hormones (T3 and T4).

The cost of a Thyroid Profile Test (TFT) may fluctuate for various reasons. However, the typical price for a TFT at PharmEasy in Allahabad is in the range of INR 339 to INR 770. If you're interested, you can also compare TFT prices in other major Indian cities.

Doctors may recommend a thyroid profile test for finding out hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and the diseases that occur due to thyroid imbalance, like Graves' disease, Hashimoto's disease, etc.

Hypothyroidism can damage the peripheral nerves if left untreated for too long. These nerves transmit information from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body.

Some of the most serious complications of hyperthyroidism concern the heart, bones, muscles, menstrual cycle, and fertility. It can cause the heart to beat faster, which may lead to stroke. In severe cases, both hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are potentially life-threatening. Let your doctor know if you notice any symptoms or thyroid problems so that he/she can get you under medical treatment immediately if necessary.

Usually, fasting or any other preparation is not required for a thyroid profile test. If you have to undergo some other tests along with it, you may be asked to fast for several hours before the test. However, your doctor can guide you better.

During the Thyroid Profile Test

For the thyroid Profile blood test, a phlebotomist will be sent to your house from PharmEasy Labs as per the date and time you chose while booking the test. To locate the vein in your arm from which blood will be drawn, a vein finder will be used. This ensures that no discomfort is felt. Only fresh new needles and syringes are used to prevent health hazards. The properly sealed sample is taken to the lab after the collection to be analysed.
