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.
6 biomarkers as listed by Blue Horizon Medicals, of 7 in total.
TSH, free T3 and free T4 are the standard markers used to assess thyroid function, and this panel adds thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin antibodies, which flag autoimmune thyroid disease, plus cortisol and magnesium at no extra cost. The provider notes that cortisol can affect thyroid function and that magnesium plays a role in converting T4 to T3, which is the reasoning given for including them.
Against the eight comparable advanced thyroid tests we list in this group, this panel has more markers than any of them, matching or exceeding rivals such as Thriva, Selph and Numan, which each test six. That extra depth comes at a cost: at £124.25 it is priced above every one of those named peers, some 42% above the comparison group's median of £87.50, and above Monitor My Health's four-marker version at £42. It is also priced a little higher than Blue Horizon's own Mini RT3 Thyroid Profile, which covers four of the same markers in the same comparison group for £120.25.
It scores at the top of the range for clinical depth given its marker count and for collection convenience, since it can be done at home with a finger prick and results come back in around a day. Value for money is the clear weak point, reflecting the price gap to every peer in the group, while trust signals and results and follow-up both score solidly on the back of the doctor review and Blue Horizon's track record.
This suits someone who wants thyroid antibody testing alongside the core hormones, for example to check for autoimmune thyroid disease as well as monitor an existing diagnosis, and who is willing to pay more for the extra markers and at-home convenience. If price matters more than antibody testing, Monitor My Health's Advanced Thyroid Test covers four core markers for £42, and Randox Health's Thyroid Function Quickdraw Test adds a fifth for £46, both well below this panel's £124.25.
Collection can be done at home with a finger-prick kit or Tasso autodraw device, or via a venous draw at a clinic or nurse home visit; the provider recommends taking the sample between 8am and 10am for a more reliable cortisol reading. The lab processes all seven markers, a doctor reviews the results, and turnaround is stated at around 1 day.
This seven-marker panel covers the same three core thyroid hormones as Blue Horizon's Bronze profile, plus both thyroid antibodies, cortisol and magnesium. At £124.25, it has more markers than any of the eight comparable advanced thyroid tests we list, but it is also priced above all of them, some 42% above the comparison group's median of £87.50. Results are back in around a day, reviewed by a doctor.

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.
