What Is a TSH Receptor Antibody Test in Chandigarh?
A TSH Receptor Antibody Test in Chandigarh is a blood test that measures the presence of antibodies directed against the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) receptor. These antibodies can either stimulate or block the thyroid gland, causing abnormal hormone production and leading to thyroid disorders such as Graves’ disease (hyperthyroidism) or Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (hypothyroidism).
Doctors commonly recommend this test to determine whether your thyroid dysfunction is caused by an autoimmune condition. It also helps guide treatment and monitor recovery. The test requires a blood sample drawn from a vein in your arm, and fasting is not necessary.
What Does the TSH Receptor Antibody Test Measure in Chandigarh?
The TSH Receptor Antibody (TRAb) Test in Chandigarh measures the concentration of antibodies that affect thyroid function. These antibodies can:
- Stimulate the TSH receptor, causing overproduction of thyroid hormones (as seen in Graves’ disease).
- Block the TSH receptor, reducing thyroid hormone levels (as seen in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis).
This test helps your doctor to:
- Confirm autoimmune thyroid disease such as Graves’ or Hashimoto’s.
- Monitor response to antithyroid medication or radioactive iodine therapy.
- Assess risk of fetal thyroid disease during pregnancy.
- Predict relapse or remission after treatment.
- Differentiate autoimmune causes from other thyroid dysfunctions.
Who Should Consider a TSH Receptor Antibody Test in Chandigarh?
You should consider this test if you:
- Have symptoms of hyperthyroidism such as weight loss, anxiety, heat intolerance, or rapid heartbeat
- Have symptoms of hypothyroidism such as fatigue, cold sensitivity, or unexplained weight gain
- Have a family history of thyroid or autoimmune disorders
- Are pregnant and have a thyroid condition (to assess risk to the baby)
- Are being treated for Graves’ disease and need monitoring
- Have inconclusive results from thyroid hormone tests (TSH, T3, T4)
Why Is a TSH Receptor Antibody Test Done?
The TSH Receptor Antibody Test in Chandigarh helps determine the cause of thyroid imbalance and distinguishes autoimmune thyroid disorders from other types. It assists in diagnosing Graves’ disease, monitoring treatment response, and predicting disease recurrence.
In pregnant women, this test is also used to assess the risk of neonatal hyperthyroidism, which can occur if the antibodies cross the placenta.

Interpreting TSH Receptor Antibody Test Results in Chandigarh
Parameter
| Parameter | Normal Range | High Values May Indicate | Low Values May Indicate |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSH Receptor Antibody (IgG) | Negative: < 1.75 IU/L | Graves’ disease, autoimmune hyperthyroidism, or risk of fetal hyperthyroidism | Remission phase or successful treatment response |
Understanding Your Results
| Result Type | Possible Interpretation |
|---|---|
| High TRAb Levels (>1.75 IU/L) | Suggest autoimmune hyperthyroidism (Graves’ disease) or stimulating antibodies. |
| Low or Negative Levels (<1.75 IU/L) | Indicates remission, recovery, or non-autoimmune thyroid dysfunction. |
| Moderate Levels | May occur during treatment response; further monitoring may be required. |
How Should You Prepare for a TSH Receptor Antibody Test in Chandigarh?
To ensure accurate results:
- No fasting required: You can eat and drink normally.
- Avoid Biotin supplements: Stop taking high-dose Biotin (>5 mg/day) at least 8 hours before your test.
- Inform your doctor: Share details of medications or supplements, especially thyroid or steroid medicines.
- Stay hydrated: Drink normal amounts of water before your test.
