Because many individuals with GRTH are clinically euthyroid (do not exhibit obvious symptoms), there\u2019s a high likelihood of a delayed diagnosis.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, standard thyroid function tests may show high levels of thyroid hormones along with normal or slightly elevated TSH levels.

For this reason, thyroid function tests alone are not enough to diagnose THRS as the results require careful interpretation and follow-up testing to rule out other causes of thyroid dysfunction<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, diagnosing THRS involves a combination of clinical evaluation and laboratory tests, including:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Thyroid Function Tests<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: These blood tests measure levels of TSH, T4, and T3.
