A member asked:
Any way i can check my thyroid at home ? i can't go to the doctor right now i've had some symptoms
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: There is no home test I am aware of for thyroid hormone levels. You need to see a doctor if you are concerned but most people who think they have a thyroid problem do not. The most common symptom of low thyroid is new onset of fatigue but there are many other reasons for this, particularly not enough sleep. An enlarged thyroid gland is another reason to have thyroid tests checked
