Allo-Tetrahydrocorticosterone (5b-THB)

Urine

Allo-Tetrahydrocorticosterone (5b-THB) is a metabolite of cortisol, one of the body's key stress hormones. It is formed through the enzymatic conversion of cortisol into 5-beta-Tetrahydrocorticosterone (5b-THF) and 5-alpha-Tetrahydrocorticosteron

Free T3

Urine

A T3 (=triiodothyronine) test is a blood test that helps diagnose thyroid conditions, specifically hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid). Healthcare providers typically order this test alongside other thyroid function tests. High or low T3 levels m

Urine

Free T4, or free thyroxine, is an essential thyroid hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism and overall health. While conventional thyroid function tests typically measure Free T4 in blood samples, it's less common to assess Fr
