Thyroid Profile Test (TFT) In Howrah - Price & Details

The thyroid gland produces two very important hormones called T3 and T4. They are responsible for many functions like-

• Contraction of muscles, including the heart's muscles
• Metabolism
• Regulating the central nervous system and autonomic nervous system
• Bone health

The thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), which is produced by the pituitary gland, triggers the thyroid gland to produce T3 and T4. So, if TSH production becomes elevated or lessened, it will impact T3 and T4 levels. Similarly, a change in T3 and T4 levels will cause the pituitary to change TSH levels. Low thyroid hormone secretion causes the pituitary gland to increase TSH hormone production and vice versa. That is why checking the levels of TSH, T3, and T4 will give your doctor a clear idea of how well your thyroid gland is working.

The thyroid profile test is useful in diagnosing both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, as well as Hashimoto's disease and Grave's disease.

The test may also be recommended after treatment has started so that your doctor can monitor your thyroid hormone levels.

TFT does not require you to fast or take special measures before the test. However, if you are taking any medicine, let your doctor know. If other tests are recommended along with TFT, your doctor will let you know if special preparation is needed.
