Know more about this test

The Thyroxine - Free (FT4) determines the amount of free thyroxine (T4) hormone in the blood and is available in Jalandhar with Tata 1mg labs. T4 hormone is secreted by the thyroid gland and is essential for the body's growth and metabolism. It circulates in the blood in two forms: free form (FT4) and bound form.

Your doctor may suggest the Thyroxine - Free (FT4) test when symptoms of hyperthyroidism (increased appetite, rapid heartbeat, weight loss, vision changes, anxiety, and swelling and enlargement of the neck) or hypothyroidism (fatigue, weight gain, joint, and muscle pain, slowed heartbeat, or dry skin) are noticed. The test results, along with your symptoms, will help the doctor diagnose any suspected thyroid disease (hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism) and monitor the treatment efficacy in people with known thyroid conditions

No special preparations are needed for the Thyroxine - Free (FT4) test. You may eat and drink as per your daily routine. On the day of the test, individuals on thyroid medications should take them at the time and dosage prescribed by their doctors.

What does Thyroxine - Free (FT4) measure?

The Thyroxine - Free (FT4) test measures the free form of thyroxine (T4) hormone made by the thyroid gland. T4 hormone exists in the blood in two forms: bound (attached to proteins) and free (not attached to proteins). Most of the T4 hormone circulating in the blood is bound to proteins and only a small part is free. A delicate balance of bound and free T4 should be maintained to ensure the proper functioning of the body.
