Age restriction on blood tests
We're unable to offer blood tests for those under the age of 18 unless it is part of a routine GP appointment and the clinician believes it suitable.
Our thyroid health blood test measures the following biomarkers:
- Triiodothyronine (FT3) is a thyroid hormone that regulates your body's energy. This test ensures that your body is processing your free thyroxine (T4) properly.
- Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH): A hormone that regulates the release of hormones from your thyroid. This test can check for hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.
- Free thyroxine (FT4): The main hormone produced by your thyroid that regulates the energy your body uses. Free T4 measures the amount of T4 that's available for your body to use. This test can help check for hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.
- Ant-Tg test detects and measures the presence of anti-thyroglobulin antibodies. It helps diagnose autoimmune thyroid diseases and predict future thyroid dysfunction.
- The Anti-TPO test measures the level of antibodies against thyroid peroxidase enzyme. It helps diagnose autoimmune thyroid diseases and predict future thyroid dysfunction.

The thyroid gland is a small gland in your neck that produces hormones that help regulate your body's metabolism. Thyroid function refers to the levels of these hormones and how well they are made and utilised by the body.
The hormones produced by the thyroid gland play a crucial role in regulating many bodily functions, including heart rate, body temperature, and energy levels. If the thyroid gland is not producing enough hormone or is producing too much hormone, it can cause a wide range of symptoms and health problems.
