"You can take a blood test to check your thyroid hormone levels from a pathology center that will determine if you have hypothyroidism.\nYour doctor will assess if your thyroid gland is bigger than it should be or if your pulse is too fast for hyperthyroidism. If Doctors think you may have it, they’ll want to do some additional blood tests to check your thyroid hormone levels. Your doctor might also recommend a thyroid scan using a small amount of radioactive tracer test to see how your thyroid works. Another option is a radioactive iodine test to see if it’s working as it should. For this test, you’ll eat a small dose of radioactive iodine. A biosensor will be used to find out how much iodine your thyroid takes in. The tracer will then leave your body when you urinate."
