About this test

What is
T4, total
?

T4, or thyroxine, is the primary thyroid hormone produced by the thyroid gland. While most T4 is bound to proteins, a small fraction remains unbound or free. Free T4 testing evaluates the circulating T4 that is accessible to body tissues and can exert its effects. Total T4 testing measures the overall amount of the hormone, encompassing both free T4 and the portion bound to proteins.

Why
T4, total
is needed?

A T4 test may be requested by a doctor for various reasons, commonly as a follow-up to an abnormal TSH test result. It is also employed when there are symptoms suggestive of a thyroid disorder. Conditions like hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are prevalent, and if symptoms indicate these disorders, a doctor may order a T4 test along with other thyroid function tests, such as TSH and T3, forming a comprehensive thyroid panel.

preparation recommendations

Typically, no specific preparation is needed for a T4 test. Your doctor will inform you if there's a requirement to stop taking any medications or supplements before the test. In some cases, discontinuing Biotin (B7) supplements briefly may be necessary to avoid interference with the test results.
