Expanded Thyroid Analysis
What’s it used for?
The VitaHealth Expanded Thyroid Analysis evaluates normal function. A healthy functioning thyroid needs a balanced level of thyroid stimulating hormone or TSH, T3 uptake, and T4. Together these hormones stimulate the gland and store hormones that increase or decrease energy expenditure. The thyroid is also related to the role of other body systems and may cause certain symptoms if it is not functioning at optimum.
The role of these hormones may include:
Thyroid Profile | Measures T3 Uptake, T4 and T7 |
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) | Measures the amount of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) to evaluate thyroid function |
T3 (Triiodothyronine), Total | Measures the amount of triiodothyronine, T3, to evaluate thyroid function |
