Test Necessity
Early diagnosis of thyroid disorders can prevent complications like cardiovascular issues, mood disorders, and bone health concerns. The TSH test is particularly crucial during and before pregnancy. This is because abnormal thyroid function can impact the growth of the foetus. The test is also prescribed for those who have Goitre (enlargement of the thyroid gland). Timely intervention through the TSH test supports overall health and well-being.
Test Preparation
No fasting is required before the test. However, you should inform your doctor about all the medications you are currently taking. Also, avoid consuming medications such as biotin and Vitamin B7 before the test. They can impact the results.
