Thyroid function tests measure the levels of several hormones produced by your thyroid
gland:
● Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is produced by the pituitary gland and stimulates the
thyroid gland to produce hormones.
● Thyroxine (T4) is the main thyroid hormone produced by the thyroid gland.
● Triiodothyronine (T3) is another thyroid hormone, but most of it is converted from T4 in the
body.
Here's a table outlining a typical reference range and possible interpretations of results,
but keep in mind that these can vary depending on the lab:
● These are just general guidelines, and the interpretation of your test results will depend on
your individual medical history and symptoms.
● It is important to consult with a doctor to interpret your individual thyroid function test results
in the context of your medical history and symptoms.
If you have any questions about your thyroid function test results, please talk to your doctor.
