While you’re on your thyroid healing journey, there are several blood markers you’ll need to monitor. Unfortunately, there are common mistakes that providers and patients make that can impact these tests, potentially producing misleading results.

Today, I’m sharing the four mistakes I see most often, which are relevant whether you have hyperthyroidism or Hashimoto’s. I’m talking about the importance of testing more than just TSH and T4 levels, why you shouldn’t take biotin or exercise intensely before a blood draw, the need for regular monitoring of thyroid antibodies, how you can get the tests you need, and more.

Convincing doctors to order these tests can be challenging, but don't be disheartened. Stand up for your health and ask for what you need. Enjoy the episode!
