Overview
TFT blood tests are essential examinations focusing on the thyroid gland, a key player in metabolism and growth regulation.
The Thyroid Function test package by PharmEasy includes the following set of tests:
- Thyroxine (T4): Measures the levels of the hormone T4, crucial for metabolism and energy regulation.
- Triiodothyronine (T3): Assesses the levels of the hormone T3, essential for overall metabolic activity.
- Thyroid Stimulating Hormone - Ultrasensitive (UTSH): Evaluates TSH levels, providing insights into thyroid gland function and potential disorders.
These hormones influence the body's energy production and metabolism.

The whole process is simple and takes just 3-5 minutes.
