Ask someone if they’ve had their thyroid checked and the answer is usually yes.
But pull up the labs and sometimes you’ll find one number:
TSH.
TSH is an important screening test. But when symptoms are still there, it may not tell us the whole story.
Depending on your history and symptoms, a more complete thyroid evaluation may include:
→ TSH
→ Free T4
→ Free T3
→ TPO antibodies
→ Thyroglobulin antibodies
And here’s the part that often gets missed:
“Within range” doesn’t always explain why you feel the way you do.
Fatigue, brain fog, hair changes, feeling cold, constipation and difficulty managing weight can have many causes. Thyroid dysfunction is one of them.
That’s why we don’t assume every symptom is thyroid.
We look at the whole pattern.
There’s a difference between screening for thyroid disease and investigating why you still don’t feel well.
Sometimes that means looking beyond TSH.
