Your thyroid plays a crucial role in regulating energy, metabolism, and mood. When it’s not functioning properly, it can lead to symptoms such as tiredness, unexplained weight gain or loss, sensitivity to cold, anxiety, and low mood.
This Thyroid Function Blood Test checks the levels of TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) and Free T4 (thyroxine) – two essential hormones used to screen for hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) or hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid).
It’s a quick and accurate way to assess your thyroid function and gain insights into symptoms that may otherwise be difficult to pinpoint.
You can collect your sample at home with the included finger-prick kit or book a professional blood sample collection at our Neath clinic (additional charge). Results are typically available within 1–2 working days from when the lab receives your sample.
