WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
Start with the right question
TSH is often used as an initial thyroid test. Free T4 and sometimes additional markers help clinicians assess the finding. The right testing approach depends on symptoms, medication, pregnancy context and previous results.
What we consider in context
- TSH and free T4 where clinically relevant
- Antibody testing when autoimmune disease is suspected
- Other explanations for fatigue or weight changes
What one result cannot tell you
A coaching-oriented optimal range is not a medical diagnostic threshold. Diagnosis and treatment of thyroid disease belong with a clinician.
