Was bedeuten die gemessenen Werte?
Was bedeuten die gemessenen Werte?
TSH (Thyroid-stimulating hormone) is produced in the pituitary gland and regulates the activity of the thyroid gland. It stimulates the thyroid to produce the hormones T3 and T4, which influence metabolism and many body functions.
High TSH levels usually indicate an underactive thyroid, as the body tries to boost hormone production. Low TSH levels, on the other hand, suggest an overactive thyroid.
fT3 (free triiodothyronine)
fT3 is the active form of the thyroid hormone that acts directly in the cells and regulates metabolism. It influences heart rate, energy consumption, digestion, and many other body functions. A large portion is produced by the conversion of the hormone T4 into T3 in the liver and kidneys.
Elevated fT3 levels usually indicate hyperthyroidism, while low levels may suggest hypothyroidism or a disturbance in the conversion of T4 to T3.
fT4 (free thyroxine)
fT4 is the precursor of the active hormone T3 and is predominantly produced by the thyroid gland. It circulates in the blood and can be converted into T3 in the organs to stimulate metabolism.
High fT4 levels typically indicate hyperthyroidism. Low levels, on the other hand, suggest hypothyroidism.
TPO / MAK (Autoantibodies against Thyroid Peroxidase)
TPO or MAK antibodies target the enzyme thyroid peroxidase, which is needed in the thyroid gland for the production of thyroid hormones. If such antibodies are formed, the immune system attacks the thyroid gland – an indication of an autoimmune disease.
They most commonly occur in Hashimoto's thyroiditis or Graves' disease. A positive test thus indicates such an autoimmune reaction, even if the level of antibodies does not always directly correlate with the severity of the disease.

FAQ - Weitere häufig gestellte Fragen zum Test
1. What is tested in the thyroid profile?
The thyroid profile measures the thyroid hormones TSH, free T3, and free T4, as well as antibodies (TPO-AK). This provides you with a comprehensive analysis of your thyroid function.
2. Who is the thyroid profile suitable for?
The test is suitable for anyone who wants to check their thyroid levels more closely – especially if there is a suspicion of an autoimmune disease such as Hashimoto's or Graves' disease.
3. Why are the antibodies in the thyroid profile important?
TPO antibodies can indicate autoimmune diseases of the thyroid, which are often the cause of underactive or overactive thyroid.
4. What symptoms indicate a thyroid disorder?
Typical signs are fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, nervousness, or heart palpitations. A thorough examination of thyroid levels helps to clarify the causes.
5. How is the thyroid profile conducted?
The procedure is simple: You take a small blood sample at home, which is then analyzed in a specialized laboratory.
6. How long does it take to receive my results?
Typically, your results are available digitally in your personal Probatix dashboard within a few days.
7. What do the test results mean?
The results indicate whether your thyroid levels are within the normal range or if there are abnormalities suggesting hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, or an autoimmune disease.
8. What can I do with the results?
The results provide a solid basis for discussing the next steps with your doctor – such as medication therapy for a thyroid disorder.
9.How often should I conduct the thyroid profile?
A regular check-up is recommended, especially if a thyroid disorder is already known or there is a family history.
