Thyroid Antibodies
The Thyroid Antibodies test is designed to detect the presence of antibodies that may indicate autoimmune thyroid conditions, such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or Graves’ disease. These conditions occur when your immune system mistakenly attacks your thyroid, causing it to become underactive or overactive. This test is especially useful if you are experiencing symptoms of thyroid dysfunction, including fatigue, weight changes, or abnormal thyroid hormone levels.

Included Tests
This test measures antibodies against thyroid peroxidase, an enzyme essential for the production of thyroid hormones. Elevated A-TPO levels suggest that the immune system is attacking the thyroid, which can lead to hypothyroidism.
A-TG antibodies target thyroglobulin, a protein produced by the thyroid gland. High levels of A-TG may indicate autoimmune thyroid disorders such as Hashimoto’s or Graves’ disease. This test helps in confirming a diagnosis and monitoring the progression of thyroid conditions.
