Anti Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPO) Test in Ahmedabad

Anti Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPO) Test in Ahmedabad

Overview:

Often termed as TPO, Thyroid peroxidase is an enzyme usually located in your thyroid gland. TPO, as the most important, is required for thyroid hormone production. The presence of TPO antibodies in your blood usually indicates that the reason for thyroid disease is an autoimmune disorder (the immune system of your body develops antibodies that crudely attack normal tissues). Thus, when these antibodies attack the thyroid gland, they lead to swelling and tenderness and reduce the normal functions of the thyroid. To combat these adverse effects on your life, an anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPO) test in Ahmedabad is required. You can always rely on Redcliffe Labs (India's one-stop diagnostic center) for the same.

Why do I need Anti-TPO Test?

Your doctor may recommend this test to find the cause of your thyroid disease. The presence of TPO antibodies in your blood indicates that the cause of thyroid disease is an autoimmune disorder such as Hashimoto's or Graves' disease. Though you don't need to suffer from thyroid disease to go for this test, you can also opt for it when you have TPO antibodies, as they indicate a high risk of future thyroid disorders. Also, in some severe cases, you might need to undergo other thyroid tests along with an anti-TPO test in Ahmedabad to take proper preventive measures at the right time.
