Are you feeling tired all the time? Gaining weight for no clear reason? Your thyroid might be the answer. This simple home test can help you check if your thyroid is working as it should.

What is a thyroid test?

This test checks your Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) levels using just a small drop of blood. It’s quick, easy, and you can do it at home in about 10 minutes.

Who should take this test?

If you’re a woman between 35 and 64 years old, it’s good to check your thyroid once a year, even if you feel healthy. This helps catch any problems early.

Why check your thyroid?

Your thyroid is like a control centre for your body’s energy. When it’s not working well, you might:

  • Feel very tired
  • Put on weight
  • Have dry skin and brittle hair
  • Feel forgetful
  • Feel down or sad
  • Feel cold often
  • Have trouble going to the toilet
  • Notice changes in your periods (for women)

How does the test work?

The test measures TSH, which comes from your pituitary gland. This hormone tells your thyroid what to do. If your TSH is high, it usually means your thyroid isn’t as active as it should be.

The test can spot signs of an underactive thyroid (called hypothyroidism). Finding problems early means you can get help sooner, which is especially important if there’s any risk of cancer.

What’s in the test kit?

Your kit comes with:

  • A test device in a sealed packet
  • A small pipette
  • A bottle of special testing liquid
  • A finger-pricker (don’t worry – it doesn’t hurt!)
  • Clear instructions

How to do the test

It’s as easy as 1-2-3-4:

  1. Use the finger-pricker to get a small drop of blood. It might seem scary, but it’s quick and nearly painless!
  2. Squeeze your finger gently to get a good-sized drop of blood.
  3. Put the blood drop on the marked spot on the test device.
  4. Add the testing liquid and wait 10 minutes to see your result.

Important things to remember

The test is set to spot TSH levels above 5 µIU/mL, which is the point where doctors start to worry about thyroid problems.

Getting your results

Ten minutes is all it takes – that’s faster than watching your favourite TV show! No need to visit your GP or sit in a waiting room.

What to do after the test

Remember that this home test is just a first step. It’s great for checking if something might be wrong, but it’s not the whole story. If your test shows something unusual, or if you still don’t feel right, it’s important to see your doctor. They might want to do more detailed tests to get a complete picture of your thyroid health.

Why choose a home test?

  • Save time – no waiting for GP appointments
  • Get quick results – just 10 minutes
  • Test in private – no need to leave home
  • Easy to use – simple steps anyone can follow
  • Early warning – catch problems before they get worse

Think of this test as your first alert system. It can’t tell you everything about your thyroid, but it can let you know if you should talk to your doctor about more detailed testing.

When to see your doctor

Talk to your GP if:

  • Your test shows unusual results
  • You have symptoms that won’t go away
  • You’re worried about your thyroid health
  • You want to understand your results better

Your doctor can run more thorough tests and give you proper medical advice based on your personal health needs.

    I have been diagonised with Tachycardia with no other symptoms of an overactive thyroid. My doctor has asked me to have a blood test….there is no way I can have blood tests as am needle phobic.
    I think I could cope with this test as I am doing the ‘needle part’. Will it test for overactive as well as an under active thyroid? Thanks.

    Easy to use although one of the finger prick devices didn’t work (there was a second one) and that’s why only four stars. Assuming the result was accurate, this is a good alternative to NHS waiting lists and gives a result in minutes.

      Although hypothyroidism is more common in women, men get it, too. A TSH Test (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Test) is an important tool in the detection of thyroid disease and problems in both men and women.

    Test kit arrived quickly and everything needed was in the package. Instructions are fairly straightforward and I followed them closely to make sure that I got an accurate result. Results of the test were later confirmed after a blood test at my local GP. Would buy this kit again.

      Straight forward to use. Decisive negative result provided.

    • Sue Scarre

      Being someone who was originally told I wasn’t hypothyroid because my TSH was in the normal range, do not accept a negative result as definitive. I had to see an endocrinologist privately and from my symptoms alone (slower heartbeat, cold, insomnia, hair falling out, etc) he knew I was most definitely hypothyroid.

    • Val Rose

      I am so frustrated at the moment as I am on 25g Lethothyoxide and know that I need a higher dosage as all my symptoms have returned and I am so low, tired, constipated, put weight on when I eat like a sparrow, always cold) but my doctor is saying I am within the TSH and wont increase, but will put me on antidepressants!! OMG I am now looking to purchase the higher lever direct but its expensive
