A 6-marker thyroid panel covering TSH, free T4, free T3, total T4 and two thyroid antibody tests, collected by a nurse. Suits people with thyroid symptoms wanting a fuller antibody check than a basic TSH test.
6 biomarkers as listed by Better2Know.
This panel checks thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which controls production of the thyroid hormones; free T4 and free T3, the active forms of thyroid hormone that affect metabolism; total T4; and two antibody tests, thyroglobulin antibodies and thyroid peroxidase antibodies, which can indicate an autoimmune thyroid condition.
Its six markers match the count offered by Thriva's Advanced thyroid function test (£80.10), Selph's Advanced Thyroid Test (£87) and Numan's Thyroid Health Blood Test (£88), all of which cost less than this £110 panel, and slightly beat the comparison group's median of 5.5 markers across the 14 tests we track. Cheaper five-marker alternatives include Medichecks' Thyroid Function with Antibodies (£65) and London Medical Laboratory's Thyroid Full Profile (£79).
It scores well for clarity, with the listing setting out the sample type, collection options and turnaround, and reasonably on price given it beats the group median depth, though it's still pricier than same-sized peers. It scores only moderately on results and follow-up, since a doctor does not review the results as standard.
This suits you if you want a full thyroid panel with both antibody tests included, collected by a nurse rather than a self-administered finger-prick, and don't mind paying a premium over similar-sized panels from other providers. If price matters more, Thriva's Advanced thyroid function test covers the same six markers for £80.10, and Selph's Advanced Thyroid Test for £87, both notably cheaper than this £110 kit.
A nurse takes a venous blood sample using the kit provided, which is then posted to Better2Know's laboratory. Results are available within two working days of the sample arriving, shown in your secure online patient area; a doctor does not review them as standard, though you can take your results to your own GP or Better2Know can arrange a private consultation.
This nurse-collected panel checks six thyroid markers: TSH, free T3, free T4, total T4 and both thyroglobulin and thyroid peroxidase antibodies. It matches the six-marker count of Thriva, Selph and Numan's advanced thyroid tests, but at £110 it costs more than any of them, and about 26% more than the £87.50 group median. Results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard.
The listing publishes a detailed description, the full biomarker list, a stated turnaround, clear collection options, the sample type; it does not state what the report looks like.
6 biomarkers against a median of 5.5 across the 14 tests in its comparison group.
A blood sample taken at home by a visiting nurse or phlebotomist; with a venous or clinic option as well; a home nurse visit is offered; results in around 2 days, in line with or faster than similar tests.
Results are not doctor-reviewed and no consultation is included; the provider does not describe the report format.

Cheaper than other six-marker thyroid panels
This test checks six thyroid markers, including TSH, FT3, FT4 and two thyroid antibodies, giving a fuller picture than a basic TSH check. It suits anyone wanting autoimmune thyroid markers included.
The only panel here testing both major thyroid antibodies
A 6-marker thyroid panel measuring TSH, free T3, free T4, total T4 and two thyroid antibodies (TPO and thyroglobulin), for people investigating possible autoimmune thyroid disease.
Mid-priced 5-hormone thyroid panel with antibodies
Tests TSH, free thyroxine, free T3 and two thyroid antibodies, extending the basic thyroid panel to look for autoimmune involvement. Suited to investigating thyroid symptoms or monitoring a known autoimmune thyroid condition.
Cheapest advanced thyroid test with antibodies
Measures TSH, FT4, FT3 and TPO antibodies from an at-home finger-prick sample, for anyone with possible thyroid symptoms who wants antibody testing alongside the standard hormone panel.
Widest thyroid panel in its group, at the highest price
Checks thyroid hormones and antibodies alongside vitamin D, ferritin and active B12, for people with possible thyroid symptoms or an existing thyroid condition to monitor.
Mid-priced among the six-marker thyroid panels
This blood test measures thyroid hormones (TSH, free T4, free T3), thyroid antibodies and vitamin D. It suits anyone with possible thyroid symptoms who wants antibody testing included, not just hormones.
More markers than its peers, priced higher too
This panel measures TSH, free T3, free T4 and both thyroid antibodies, plus cortisol and magnesium at no extra cost. It suits people wanting a deeper thyroid check, including autoimmune antibodies, alongside monitoring an existing diagnosis.
At-home thyroid panel, £14 less than Randox's clinic test
An at-home blood test measuring TSH, Free T3, Free T4 and two thyroid antibodies, for people who want to check thyroid function without a clinic visit.
Broader thyroid panel priced 10% below the group median
A five-marker thyroid panel checking TSH, free T3, free T4 and two thyroid antibodies, going beyond a basic TSH and T4 check.
Joint-deepest thyroid panel here, but the priciest
Checks six thyroid markers, including TSH, T4, T3 and two thyroid antibodies, from an at-home finger-prick sample. Suited to people wanting a fuller picture than a basic TSH-only check.
1-day thyroid test, faster than Randox's home kit
A clinic-based blood test measuring TSH, Free T3, Free T4 and two thyroid antibodies, with results available within 24 hours.
Priced above every named peer in its thyroid group
This blood test measures TSH, free T3, free T4 and reverse T3, giving a focused view of thyroid hormone status. It suits people already diagnosed with a thyroid condition who want ongoing monitoring rather than a first-time check.
Same marker count as rivals, at a far higher price
A 5-marker thyroid panel covering TSH, free T4, free T3 and two thyroid antibody tests, using a clinic or nurse-visit blood draw. Suits people with thyroid symptoms wanting antibody testing alongside the core hormones.
