Thyroid Test

2020-11-01 03:01:40
I am on medication for PCOD and when I last checked my thyroid level was also high. I have taken medication for PCOD for 3 cycles and now continuing it. My doctor asked me to get a thyroid test again to see the progress. I wanted to know what is the best time to get thyroid test done? Should it be done on an empty stomach or can I eat something and do it as well. My lab people told me not to come empty stomach however I have read articles which says it's best to get it done in the morning. Also, can I do this thyroid test during my period? Awaiting your response. Regards
