Accurate thyroid assessment matters

Thyroid disorders are common, but an abnormal thyroid test does not always mean the same diagnosis or the same treatment. Thyroid function tests, symptoms, medicines, antibodies, imaging and the wider clinical picture all shape the right next step.

Signs it's time to see a specialist

A thyroid consultation helps when tests are abnormal, symptoms persist or the diagnosis is uncertain.

  • Abnormal TSH or thyroid tests

    You want to understand whether further tests or treatment are needed.

  • Symptoms that persist

    Fatigue, weight change, palpitations or heat or cold intolerance despite treatment.

  • A neck swelling or nodule

    A goitre or thyroid nodule that needs endocrine assessment.

  • Hard-to-control thyroid levels

    Hormone levels stay abnormal despite apparently appropriate treatment.

  • Planning or in pregnancy

    Abnormal thyroid tests before or during pregnancy need careful management.

    Abnormal tests, growth concerns or symptoms suggesting thyroid dysfunction.

Specialist care

Why see an endocrinologist for thyroid disease?

Thyroid disorders are part of endocrinology, the specialty concerned with hormones and metabolism.

A DrNB-trained endocrinologist evaluates thyroid disease alongside other hormone conditions that may coexist.

With an MD in Pediatrics and DrNB training in Endocrinology, Dr. Santosha Mantha provides thyroid care for adults, children and adolescents.
