Many people who have not been diagnosed with a thyroid problem have no idea if or when they should have thyroid testing. And for people with hypothyroidism, thyroid blood tests are an unpleasant but necessary part of their thyroid care. Things can become even more problematic when you try to determine how often to get tested! Yearly? Twice a year? Quarterly? How often should you actually get your thyroid tested? In this podcast, learn about when to schedule thyroid bloodwork.

What you will learn:

• Are you undiagnosed, and you have hypothyroidism symptoms?
• Are you undiagnosed, and you’re age 35 or older?
• Are you undiagnosed, and you’re a woman over 50?
• Are you undiagnosed, but you have a family history of thyroid disease?
• Are you undiagnosed but taking medications known to affect the thyroid?
