The Thyroglobulin Antibodies test detects antibodies against thyroglobulin, a protein produced by the thyroid gland that plays a key role in hormone production. Elevated levels of these antibodies may indicate autoimmune thyroid disease, such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis or Graves' disease. This test is particularly important for individuals with a history of thyroid issues or those undergoing treatment for thyroid cancer, as it can help monitor the effectiveness of treatment and the potential for recurrence. Understanding your thyroglobulin antibody levels is crucial for managing thyroid health effectively.

Reasons to Check It:

"

"Autoimmune thyroid disease is characterized by the occurrence of antibodies directed against the thyroid gland, referred to as autoantibodies. 

Individuals who have thyroid autoantibodies can progress to overt hypothyroidism at a rate of 3%-5% per year. A common thyroid autoantibody seen in people with hypothyroidism is called thyroid peroxidase antibody.

If your thyroglobulin antibody is positive you may develop the signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism which includes weight gain, loss of energy and loss of sex drive." - Dr. Alan Hopkins
