Thyroid Advanced is a detailed test for detecting thyroid problems, especially autoimmune conditions like Graves’ disease.
 
It measures key thyroid hormones (TSH, T4, T3, fT4, fT3) and antibodies (TPO Ab, TG Ab, TRAb), along with other markers like rT3 and T uptake. These tests help diagnose thyroid disorders and monitor thyroid function.
 
TSH controls thyroid hormone production. T4 is the main hormone, while T3 is the most active form. Free T4 (fT4) and Free T3 (fT3) show the amount of hormone available for the body to use.
 
Thyroid antibodies can indicate autoimmune conditions, affecting hormone production. Reverse T3 (rT3) helps assess thyroid conversion issues, which may be caused by stress, illness, or nutrient deficiencies.
 
TRAb antibodies can mistakenly attack the thyroid, leading to either overactive (hyperthyroidism) or underactive (hypothyroidism) thyroid function.
