What is T3 - Total Test?

A Tri Iodothyronine T3 test checks the amount of overall T3 hormone in your blood and is often used to identify thyroid-related conditions. The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your neck, produces two important hormones: T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine). These hormones act as messengers, travelling through your blood to regulate various body functions such as energy usage, weight management, heart function, body temperature, muscle strength, and mood. In children, they also play a vital role in growth.

T3 exists in two forms in your blood: free T3, which is active and directly used by your tissues, and bound T3, which is attached to proteins and temporarily unavailable to your tissues.The majority of the T3 in your body is bound. To measure T3, two types of tests are done. The Total T3 test measures both free and bound T3, offering a broader picture, while the free T3 test specifically looks at the active hormone in your blood.

If you are monitoring your thyroid health, scheduling a Tri Iodothyronine T3 test in Bangalore is a convenient step to obtain accurate results, providing valuable insights into your thyroid’s performance.

T3 - Total Test Parameters

The Total T3 test measures only a single parameter: the amount of total T3 hormone.

T3 is one of the main hormones produced by your thyroid gland, working alongside T4, often referred to as “thyroid hormone.” While the thyroid produces some T3 directly, most is derived from the conversion of T4 into T3 by organs like the liver and kidneys. This makes T3 the active form of thyroid hormone, influencing vital functions such as metabolism, heart and digestive health, muscle control, brain development, and bone strength, while T4 acts as its inactive precursor. Hence, the balance and activity of T3 are crucial for maintaining a proper thyroid function.
