Use
Differential diagnosis of hypothyroidism and thyroiditis
The Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO) Antibodies test measures antibodies that attack thyroid peroxidase, an essential enzyme your thyroid uses to produce hormones. Elevated levels often indicate an autoimmune thyroid condition—even before major hormone changes appear.
This test helps detect and monitor:
-
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
-
Graves’ disease
-
Early autoimmune thyroid dysfunction
-
Unexplained thyroid hormone imbalances
You may consider this test if you experience fatigue, weight gain, hair thinning, depression, anxiety, cold sensitivity, irregular periods, or have a family history of thyroid disease.
With MYLABTEST, you can order your test online, visit a nearby certified lab at your convenience, and receive secure, accurate results—no doctor’s referral required.
Identify the cause. Protect your thyroid health early.
