Depends for what reason if previously hypothyroidism, just a TSH is okay to monitor. If hyperthyroidism then free and TSH. If for health checkup then only TSH

Hi., I can understand your concern. You can plan for total thyroid profile, which says about both blood and non-blood levels of thyroid hormones.
