Thyroid Function Testing

The thyroid gland is a very important endocrine gland located within the neck on either side of the trachea. The hormones secreted by this glad are responsible for the general metabolism of the body. Excessive or diminished secretion of these hormones can have effects on the metabolism of the body by accelerating or slowing the rate at which your body uses its resources. These changes in metabolism can alter your body weight, change your energy level, and even lead to depression or anxiety.
