Use a Home Thyroid Test to
Monitor Healthy Thyroid Function

There is a simple home thyroid test that you can use to be proactive and may ensure that your thyroid is within healthy ranges.

Home Thyroid Test is a TOOL not a Diagnosis

Recognize this is just a tool in determining if your thyroid is in healthy ranges. And if not, I recommend that you consult a medical professional and have your thyroid tested professionally!

When levels are in normal range we can be proactive in ensuring that are thyroid is getting the proper amino acids and minerals to support healthy thyroid function. The thyroid gland regulates body metabolism, energy, and body temperature.

What do I need to do a Home Test?

This is what you will need to do a home thyroid test:

• Basal Thermometer; and
• Temperature Chart; or Paper and Pen!

That is it!

How is the Test Done?

1. Before you go to bed place a basal thermometer next to your bed.
   
2. Immediately when you wake up take your basal cell temperature under your arm pit BEFORE you get out of bed.
   
3. If you are using a mercury or non-mercury thermometer than leave it in ten minutes. If you are using a digital, then do it according to the manufacturer instructions.
   
4. Write down the temperature or chart it if you would like.

Why Should I use a Basal Thermometer?

Basal thermometers are more accurate than oral thermometer and are designed to measure in this manner. Mercury thermometers are the most accurate with non-mercury being close. Digital thermometers are the least accurate.

How Many Days do I Take the Readings?

Take the readings a minimum of three days. For menstruating women start on the third day of your cycle for best results and track for three to ten days.

How do I interpret the Temperatures?

Temperatures are optimally between 97.6 F (36.5 C) and 98.2 F (36.7 C). If the temperature is below 97.6 F (36.5 C) then your thyroid may need additional support. Consider Thyromin to support healthy thyroid function. Please seek medical advice if needed.
