What should I do if my thyroid function test results are abnormal?

If your thyroid function test results are abnormal, it’s essential to consult your doctor for further evaluation. Abnormal results can indicate conditions like hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, or autoimmune thyroid diseases such as Hashimoto’s disease or Graves’ disease. Your doctor may recommend additional tests, including thyroid antibody tests or ultrasound, to determine the underlying cause. Treatment will depend on your diagnosis and may include thyroid hormone replacement, anti-thyroid medications, or lifestyle adjustments to help manage your condition.
