What is the best time to take tsh test?

2018-07-25 04:54:46
Doctor advised me to do a TSH, Free t3 and free t4 test. Is it mandatory to take the test during periods? Can hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism be determined any time in a month?

Dear Being on empty stomach for 10-12 hours (water permitted) is mandatory for TSH estimation. Rest is important and stress of any kind can alter the test.
