My periods are 8 days late and gynac has asked me to do a thyroid test also along with other things. I got confused matlab can that blood report tell if im pregnant or its totally separate? thoda clueless about all these tests.
Actually no dear, thyroid test only checks your hormone levels for thyroid, not pregnancy. For pregnancy, you need a beta hCG blood test or a simple home urine kit. I remember taking so many urine tests while fighting horrible morning sickness!
Haha no, thyroid test won't catch a baby! You need a pregnancy test kit (UPT) or a blood test called beta-hCG for that. Believe me, with twins I had to do both and they are completely different tests.
I remember being so confused about all these tests in the beginning, the worry is so real. But thyroid test is just for checking TSH levels, it doesn't detect a pregnancy. Sending you lots of love, hope you get your positive news soon!
No re, thyroid test won't help you find out if you are pregnant. My doctor did a TSH test because my energy was zero, but for pregnancy you need the classic pee-on-a-stick test. Trust me, save your blood for all the other tests coming your way!
Honestly, thyroid test is totally different, it won't show pregnancy results. If you missed your period, just get a simple UPT kit from any pharmacy. It's super easy and gives clear results in 2 minutes.
Hey, don't stress too much about all these complicated terms! Thyroid test has nothing to do with detecting a baby. Just grab a Prega News kit from the local chemist and do it tomorrow first thing in the morning.
I am also planning right now and reading up so much on this. As far as I know, thyroid test won't show pregnancy, you need a beta hCG or urine test. Let me know if you find out more, baby dust to you!
No, thyroid test cannot detect if you are pregnant. It only checks your thyroid gland function. Please consult your gynac, she will write the correct pregnancy blood test or suggest a urine test.
Relax dear, thyroid test is just to check how your thyroid gland is working. To check pregnancy, you need a standard urine pregnancy test or a beta hCG test. Don't stress, just do a home test tomorrow morning.
From my experience, thyroid levels can fluctuate during pregnancy but the test itself won't tell you if you are pregnant. You should consult a doctor if your period is late. They will guide you with the proper tests to be absolutely sure.
No, thyroid test only checks your TSH levels, it won't confirm pregnancy. Just like managing my sugar with strict diet, I had to keep my thyroid in check too. Better to do a urine test first to confirm.
I also got so confused about this earlier and started panicking over test names! But actually thyroid test is totally different. Just do a regular home urine test, it's very simple and normal to get confused.
