Fasting and dietary instructions:

No fasting is required for this test. However, as a general precaution, avoid alcohol and a heavy, fatty meal the evening before any blood test. These can temporarily alter several commonly tested markers even in tests that do not require strict fasting.

Medication guidance:

If you are on levothyroxine (thyroid hormone replacement), do not take your morning dose before the blood draw , have the sample collected first, then take your medication. This gives the most accurate reading of your baseline thyroid hormone level before the daily dose is absorbed into the system.

What to bring:

Bring your prescription, a government-issued ID, and your OPD insurance details. Inform the phlebotomist of any recent illness, active infections, allergy to latex, or history of fainting during blood draws , so appropriate care can be taken during the procedure.

Timing:

The best time for blood tests is in the morning after an overnight fast and a night of normal rest. Stress, poor sleep, and strenuous activity can affect several hormonal and metabolic markers. Booking a morning slot minimises these variables.

Who should get 3D Ultrasound Small Parts done?

Doctors order it when a patient has a lump, swelling, pain, or an abnormal finding on a physical exam or other test. Women above 30, particularly those with a family history of thyroid disease, irregular periods, PCOS, or plans to conceive, should consider annual thyroid screening. Men are less commonly affected but should be tested if they experience unexplained fatigue, weight changes, or low libido that cannot be attributed to other causes. Regular screening identifies subclinical thyroid disease before it progresses to overt dysfunction.
