Thyroid Profile Test (TFT) in Kolkata - Price & Details

PharmEasy Labs has established a strong reputation for its exceptional services, particularly in the field of speedy report delivery and result accuracy, especially with the Thyroid Profile Test.

The thyroid, a small gland in the front of your neck with a butterfly-like shape, produces three crucial hormones: T3 (triiodothyronine), T4 (thyroxine), and calcitonin. These hormones govern various bodily functions, such as metabolism and growth, playing a pivotal role in maintaining overall health.

These tests are instrumental in diagnosing conditions like hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) or hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid).

Hypothyroidism:

• Hypothyroidism, where the thyroid produces too few hormones, results in a slowed metabolism with symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and difficulty concentrating.
• Common causes include autoimmune conditions (Hashimoto’s thyroiditis), thyroid inflammation (thyroiditis), postpartum thyroiditis, and iodine deficiency.

Hyperthyroidism:

• Hyperthyroidism, characterised by excessive thyroid hormone production and an accelerated metabolism, causes increased appetite, anxiety, and sleep difficulties.
• The main causes include Graves’ disease, thyroiditis, excess iodine intake, and thyroid nodules.

Due to several factors, the cost of a Thyroid Profile Test (TFT) may vary. Nevertheless, the standard price for a TFT at PharmEasy in Kolkata typically ranges from INR 339 to INR 770. Consider checking and comparing TFT prices in major cities across India.
