Free T4 on TRT

What the number means, why it moves on a protocol, and what people usually do about it.

What it is

Free T4 is the storage form of thyroid hormone, made by the gland and converted to T3 in tissue. It moves slowly and shows what the thyroid itself is producing.

Read against the lab range and the trend

How to read the lab range

Lab range roughly 0.8 to 1.8 ng/dL (12 to 22 pmol/L). Low with a high TSH is hypothyroidism; low with a low TSH is a pituitary or medication story.

How Magno reads it

Import the PDF or a photo of the report and Magno finds Free T4 on it, keeps every test on one line, shows the change since the last one, and reads it against TRT-aware thresholds rather than the lab's generic range. The panel it belongs to, Thyroid, gets a written verdict with the probable causes and what people usually do.

Questions people ask

Free T4 low on T3, is that a problem?

Expected. Taking T3 turns the gland down. It returns after stopping.
