It regulates your energy consumption, your body temperature, your pulse - and even your mood. If it gets out of balance, this can have far-reaching consequences: Weight gain, exhaustion, hair loss, concentration problems, nervousness or feeling cold - all of these can be an indication that your thyroid gland is out of sync.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1009\" data-end=\"1307\">What many people don't realise is that thyroid disorders often develop slowly. Symptoms are misclassified or not noticed at all. This makes it all the more important to regularly check the relevant blood values - especially if diffuse symptoms occur that cannot be explained.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-button--style-basic-icon-container vce button-float-left vce-button--style-basic-icon-container--align-left\" id=\"el-4e1a9344\" data-vce-do-apply=\"margin el-4e1a9344\"><a class=\"vce-button vce-button--style-basic-icon vce-button--style-basic-icon--border-round vce-button--style-basic-icon--color-b-80-194-189--fff\" href=\"https:\/\/www.doctolib.de\/ernahrungsmedizin\/braunschweig\/ahmed-abdel-rahman?utm_campaign=website-button&amp;amp;utm_source=ahmed-abdel-rahman-website-button&amp;amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;amp;utm_content=custom&amp;amp;utm_term=ahmed-abdel-rahman\" title=\"\" target=\"_blank\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding border background  el-4e1a9344\"><span class=\"vce-button--style-basic-icon-inner\"><span class=\"vce-button--style-basic-icon-text\">Arrange appointment<\/span><span class=\"vce-button--style-basic-icon-icon vcv-ui-icon-material vcv-ui-icon-material-arrow_forward\"><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"vce-button--style-basic-icon-container vce dis-none vce-button--style-basic-icon-container--align-left\" id=\"el-1ba2ffc4\" data-vce-do-apply=\"margin el-1ba2ffc4\"><a class=\"vce-button vce-button--style-basic-icon vce-button--style-basic-icon--border-round vce-button--style-basic-icon--color-ba-0-0-0-0--b-225-35-96\" href=\"tel:+4989842225\" title=\"\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding border background  el-1ba2ffc4\"><span class=\"vce-button--style-basic-icon-inner\"><span class=\"vce-button--style-basic-icon-text\">Call now<\/span><span class=\"vce-button--style-basic-icon-icon vcv-ui-icon-material vcv-ui-icon-material-arrow_forward\"><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--xs-100p vce-col--xs-visible vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-100p vce-col--sm-visible vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-50p vce-col--md-visible vce-col--md-last vce-col--md-first vce-col--lg-50p vce-col--lg-visible vce-col--lg-last vce-col--lg-first vce-col--xl-50p vce-col--xl-visible vce-col--xl-last\" id=\"el-a6dbcccc\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-a6dbcccc\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-a6dbcccc\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-container vce-single-image--align-center\"><div class=\"vce vce-single-image-wrapper\" id=\"el-d86f073a\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-d86f073a\"><figure><div class=\"vce-single-image-figure-inner\" style=\"width: 650px;\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-inner vce-single-image--absolute vce-single-image--border-rounded\" style=\"width: 100%; padding-bottom: 100%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vce-single-image\"  width=\"650\" height=\"650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Thyroid-gland-320x320.png 320w, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Thyroid-gland-480x480.png 480w, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Thyroid-gland-650x650.png 650w\" src=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Thyroid-gland-650x650.png\" data-img-src=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Thyroid-gland.png\" data-attachment-id=\"1219\"  alt=\"\" title=\"Thyroid gland\" \/><\/div><\/div><figcaption hidden=\"\"><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-container\" data-vce-boxed-width=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-row vce-element--xl--has-background vce-element--lg--has-background vce-element--md--has-background vce-element--sm--has-background vce-element--xs--has-background vce-row--col-gap-30 section-radius row-bottom-margin vce-row-equal-height vce-row-content--bottom\" id=\"el-c1d45e0f\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-c1d45e0f\"><div class=\"vce-content-background-container\"><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--md-auto vce-col--xs-1 vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-first vce-col--lg-first vce-col--xl-first\" id=\"el-1290f22d\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-1290f22d\"><div class=\"vce-content-background-container\"><\/div><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-1290f22d\"><div class=\"vce-text-block\"><div class=\"vce-text-block-wrapper vce\" id=\"el-71785e35\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-71785e35\"><h2>Thyroid values in the lab: what really counts<\/h2><p data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1733\">The most important laboratory parameters for the thyroid gland are TSH, fT3 and fT4 - i.e. the control hormone from the brain and the two active thyroid hormones. They show how well the thyroid gland is functioning and whether it is producing enough hormones. Antibodies can also be determined if an autoimmune disease such as Hashimoto's is suspected.<\/p><p data-start=\"1735\" data-end=\"2115\">TSH is a sensitive marker: even small shifts can have noticeable effects - even if the values are still \"within the normal range\". That's why it's not just the laboratory number that is decisive, but the connection to the symptoms. In our practice, we attach great importance to this individual interpretation: what do your values say - and what do they mean for your everyday life?<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--md-auto vce-col--xs-1 vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-last vce-col--lg-last vce-col--xl-last\" id=\"el-9a8ab2e8\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-9a8ab2e8\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-9a8ab2e8\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-container vce-single-image--align-left\"><div class=\"vce vce-single-image-wrapper\" id=\"el-23f4ca15\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-23f4ca15\"><figure><div class=\"vce-single-image-figure-inner\" style=\"width: 959px;\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-inner vce-single-image--absolute\" style=\"width: 100%; padding-bottom: 83.4202%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vce-single-image\"  width=\"959\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/praxis-team-img-v3-959x800-1-320x267.png 320w, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/praxis-team-img-v3-959x800-1-480x400.png 480w, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/praxis-team-img-v3-959x800-1-800x667.png 800w, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/praxis-team-img-v3-959x800-1-959x800.png 959w\" src=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/praxis-team-img-v3-959x800-1-959x800.png\" data-img-src=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/praxis-team-img-v3-959x800-1.png\" data-attachment-id=\"1096\"  alt=\"\" title=\"praxis-team-img-v3-959x800\" \/><\/div><\/div><figcaption hidden=\"\"><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-container\" data-vce-boxed-width=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-row vce-row--col-gap-30 row-bottom-margin vce-row-equal-height vce-row-content--middle\" id=\"el-2deafd7e\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-2deafd7e\"><div class=\"vce-content-background-container\"><\/div><div class=\"vce-row-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\"><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--md-auto vce-col--xs-1 vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-first vce-col--lg-first vce-col--xl-first\" id=\"el-24a1bf87\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-24a1bf87\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-24a1bf87\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-container img-radius vce-single-image--align-left\"><div class=\"vce vce-single-image-wrapper\" id=\"el-3820d236\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-3820d236\"><figure><div class=\"vce-single-image-figure-inner\" style=\"width: 1024px;\"><div class=\"vce-single-image-inner vce-single-image--absolute\" style=\"width: 100%; padding-bottom: 55.6641%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vce-single-image\"  width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_4084-1024x570.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_4084-2048x1140.jpeg 2x, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_4084-320x178.jpeg 320w, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_4084-480x267.jpeg 480w, https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_4084-800x445.jpeg 800w\" src=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_4084-1024x570.jpeg\" data-img-src=\"https:\/\/gesundheits-analyse.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_4084-scaled.jpeg\" data-attachment-id=\"1290\"  alt=\"\" title=\"IMG_4084\" \/><\/div><\/div><figcaption hidden=\"\"><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vce-col vce-col--md-auto vce-col--xs-1 vce-col--xs-last vce-col--xs-first vce-col--sm-last vce-col--sm-first vce-col--md-last vce-col--lg-last vce-col--xl-last\" id=\"el-e4ea8a00\"><div class=\"vce-col-inner\" data-vce-do-apply=\"border margin background  el-e4ea8a00\"><div class=\"vce-col-content\" data-vce-element-content=\"true\" data-vce-do-apply=\"padding el-e4ea8a00\"><div class=\"vce-text-block\"><div class=\"vce-text-block-wrapper vce\" id=\"el-e5363774\" data-vce-do-apply=\"all el-e5363774\"><h3 data-start=\"2122\" data-end=\"2183\">Sport &amp; thyroid: the underestimated interplay<\/h3><p data-start=\"2185\" data-end=\"2549\">If you exercise regularly, you should keep a close eye on your thyroid levels.
