About this treatment
This test uses a venous blood sample taken from your arm at the Macclesfield Clinic. The sample is sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory to measure Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), Free Thyroxine 4 (FT4) and Free Thyroxine 3 (FT3). These markers may support monitoring of an existing thyroid condition or investigation of a possible thyroid disorder, but the results do not provide a diagnosis in isolation.
Do not take biotin supplements for 3–5 days before the test, as stated by the clinic. The listing does not specify other preparation requirements or additional aftercare. Results are available online and include a clinical comment from the medical team, with results expected within approximately 48 hours. No GP referral is needed. If you take prescribed thyroid medication or other relevant medicines, follow the instructions provided by your healthcare…
Repeat testing is usually guided by your clinical reason for testing, treatment plan and previous results. The appropriate interval can vary, so seek professional advice rather than repeating on an arbitrary schedule. The clinic does not list contraindications. Contact a qualified healthcare professional if symptoms are significant, changing or not explained by the result.
