Thyroid test discrepancy

2025-02-01 09:35:29
Hi, my TSH on 3rd Jan was 5.08, recently when it was done again it was around 3.72 My question is first I did it on an empty stomach and the second time it was after breakfast. Could it be the reason for the difference, also should I get it checked again ?

Go for TSH, FT4, FT3 and Anti-TPO from a reputed lab. Empty stomach is best
