TFT Test - #17858
For the past few months, I have been feeling constantly tired, gaining weight unexpectedly, and experiencing mood swings. I also noticed that my skin has become dry, and my hair is falling out more than usual. A friend suggested that these symptoms might be related to my thyroid, so I visited a doctor. They recommended a TFT test to check if my thyroid gland is functioning properly. I started researching TFT test, and I found that it stands for Thyroid Function Test, which measures hormone levels in the blood to assess thyroid health. Some sources say that the TFT test checks for T3, T4, and TSH levels to determine if someone has hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. Others mention that imbalanced thyroid hormones can affect metabolism, digestion, and even mental health. Now, I am wondering—what exactly does the TFT test reveal, and how can I manage my thyroid health naturally? Doctor, I want to understand how Ayurveda explains thyroid imbalances and whether there are natural ways to support thyroid health before relying on medication. Are there specific Ayurvedic herbs, dietary changes, or therapies that can help maintain proper thyroid function? I have heard about Kanchanar Guggulu, Ashwagandha, and Triphala for thyroid support—do they really help, and how should they be used? I also want to know if my diet or daily habits are affecting my thyroid function. Should I avoid certain foods like processed foods or excessive soy, and are there Ayurvedic dietary recommendations to maintain a balanced thyroid? Does Ayurveda recommend detox therapies like Panchakarma or specific breathing exercises to improve metabolism and support hormonal balance? Since I want to take a natural and preventive approach to thyroid health, I am looking for an Ayurvedic perspective on the TFT test and thyroid care. Please guide me on the best Ayurvedic remedies, diet, and lifestyle changes to support my thyroid and maintain overall well-being.
