TAP 83: What Tests Are Needed To Evaluate Thyroid Physiology?

It seems that every doctor and health care practitioner has a different opinion on which thyroid tests are important and which ones aren't.

In this episode of the podcast I try to provide some clarity to what tests are needed to evaluate thyroid physiology. In most cases it will come down to 4 key factors:

• What type of doctor is running your bloodwork
• What their philosphy is regarding thyroid physiology
• What they are trying to identify
• What the goal of testing is

I hope this episode clears up some of the confusion for you!
