Welcome to LabCoach!

I'm here to help you understand the biomarkers in your Comprehensive Thyroid Health Panel panel.

Try asking:

  • "What does creatinine measure?"
  • "Why is vitamin D important?"
  • "What influences glucose levels?"
This provides educational information about biomarkers—not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult your healthcare provider for medical concerns.

Comprehensive Thyroid Health Panel

Thyroid Function

TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)

metabolic regulation energy balance temperature regulation

Part of: Thyroid Panel

What Is It

TSH is a hormone made by the pituitary gland that signals the thyroid to produce thyroid hormones. It is part of the feedback system that helps regulate metabolism and energy.

What It Measures

Pituitary signal that helps regulate thyroid hormone production.

Why It Matters

Supports thyroid wellness education when interpreted alongside Free T4, Free T3, and symptoms with a clinician.

Common Influences
  • Illness/stress
  • Thyroid medication
  • Iodine status
  • Autoimmunity
  • Pregnancy

Free T4 (Thyroxine)

general wellness biomarker

Part of: Thyroid Panel

What Is It

Free T4 is the unbound (active-available) form of thyroxine, one of the main thyroid hormones. The body can convert T4 into T3, the more active thyroid hormone.

What It Measures

Unbound thyroxine available in blood.

Why It Matters

Provides context for thyroid hormone availability; best interpreted with TSH and Free T3.

Common Influences
  • Thyroid medication
  • Illness
  • Iodine intake
  • Pregnancy
  • Certain supplements (biotin)

Free T3 (Triiodothyronine)

general wellness biomarker

Part of: Thyroid Panel

What Is It

Free T3 is the unbound (active-available) form of triiodothyronine, the thyroid hormone that most directly influences metabolic rate, temperature regulation, and energy.

What It Measures

Unbound active thyroid hormone available in blood.

Why It Matters

Used in thyroid wellness education for metabolic signaling context; interpret with a clinician.

Common Influences
  • Stress/illness
  • Caloric restriction
  • Thyroid medication
  • Overtraining
  • Certain supplements (biotin)
Thyroid Antibodies

Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPO)

metabolic regulation energy balance temperature regulation

Part of: Thyroid Panel

What Is It

TPO antibodies are immune proteins that can target thyroid peroxidase, an enzyme involved in thyroid hormone production. Their presence may suggest thyroid-directed immune activity.

What It Measures

Antibodies that may indicate thyroid-directed immune activity.

Why It Matters

Helps contextualize thyroid wellness and whether follow-up with a licensed provider is warranted.

Common Influences
  • Autoimmune activity
  • Postpartum changes
  • Genetics
  • Iodine exposure
  • Other autoimmune conditions

Thyroglobulin Antibodies (TgAb)

general wellness biomarker

Part of: Thyroid Panel

What Is It

Thyroglobulin antibodies are immune proteins that can target thyroglobulin, a thyroid-related protein. Their presence may suggest thyroid-directed immune activity.

What It Measures

A laboratory biomarker measured from your sample.

Why It Matters

This marker can provide educational insight into general wellness domains such as metabolism, nutrient status, organ function, inflammation, or hormonal signaling. Interpretation depends on context, symptoms, medications, and timing.

Common Influences
  • Recent illness or inflammation
  • Medications and supplements
  • Hydration status
  • Fasting status and time of day
  • Recent exercise and stress
