Description

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), originating from the Pituitary gland, oversees the thyroid gland's operations. Thyroid hormones manage crucial bodily functions. Symptoms of thyroid disorders include hair loss, dry skin, mood swings, depression, irregular menstruation, cold extremities, excessive sweating, weight fluctuations, weakness, facial swelling, anemia, constipation, and impaired growth in children. The TSH Test aids in identifying thyroid disorders and evaluating the efficacy of ongoing treatment for known thyroid issues. This test measures the level of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in the blood, which is produced by the pituitary gland to stimulate the thyroid gland in producing and releasing thyroid hormones.

Overview

Opting for TSH testing with PharmEasy is a wise choice, given the widespread recommendation of these labs by doctors for their efficient services. A skilled phlebotomist will visit your home to collect a blood sample at the time you select through PharmEasy's convenient app/website booking system.

The TSH test assesses the functionality of your thyroid, indicating whether you have hyperthyroidism (excessive thyroid hormone) or hypothyroidism (insufficient thyroid hormone) in your blood. However, it cannot identify the cause of a thyroid problem.

If you are on prescription thyroid hormone medication due to hypothyroidism or a past thyroid removal, regular TSH tests are essential to monitor your thyroid hormone levels. Additionally, TSH tests play a crucial role in tracking thyroid hormone levels post-treatment for hyperthyroidism.

Test Necessity

The TSH test is a vital diagnostic tool for assessing thyroid gland function, especially for those with symptoms like unexplained weight loss, lack of energy, temperature sensitivity, and more. It is recommended for various conditions, including goitre, PCOS, pregnancy, obesity, and autoimmune disorders.

After diagnosis and TSH test results, physicians create a treatment plan, prescribing medication if needed. Periodic TSH tests help assess treatment effectiveness and adjust dosage. Hyperthyroidism shows symptoms like weight loss and rapid heartbeat, while hypothyroidism presents symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and depression.

Test Preparation

The TSH test requires no specific preparation, allowing normal meals and hydration. However, if additional tests are recommended, fasting might be necessary. While fasting is usually unnecessary for a TSH test, follow any specific instructions from your healthcare provider. Inform your doctor about all medications and supplements, as they can affect thyroid function.

During The TSH Test

PharmEasy brings the TSH test to the comfort of your home with the expertise of a seasoned phlebotomist. Utilizing a vein finder and a syringe, they conduct a straightforward blood draw that takes no more than 10 minutes. After clotting in the lab, the serum is extracted for additional testing while maintaining strict hygiene.
