Understanding Your Thyroid Health: The TBG Thyroxine Binding Globulin Test
When you’re struggling with persistent fatigue, unexplained weight changes, or mood fluctuations that disrupt your daily life, finding answers can feel overwhelming. The TBG Thyroxine Binding Globulin Test provides the clarity you need to understand your thyroid function at a deeper level. This specialized assessment goes beyond standard thyroid testing to examine the protein that transports thyroid hormones throughout your body, offering insights that could transform your health journey.
What Does the TBG Test Actually Measure?
Thyroxine Binding Globulin (TBG) is the primary protein in your blood that carries thyroid hormones to where they’re needed throughout your body. Think of TBG as the delivery system that ensures your thyroid hormones reach their destinations effectively. When TBG levels are abnormal, it can affect how much active thyroid hormone is available to your cells, even if your thyroid gland itself is producing adequate amounts.
Our advanced immunoassay technology provides precise measurements of your TBG levels, giving you and your healthcare provider a comprehensive picture of your thyroid hormone transport system.
Who Should Consider This Important Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these concerning symptoms, the TBG test could provide the answers you’ve been seeking:
- Unexplained fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Sudden weight changes without diet or exercise modifications
- Mood swings, anxiety, or depression that seem hormone-related
- Temperature sensitivity – feeling unusually cold or hot
- Hair loss or dry skin that persists despite treatments
- Irregular menstrual cycles or fertility concerns
- Family history of thyroid disorders
Many South Africans struggle with these symptoms without understanding the underlying thyroid connection. This test helps bridge that knowledge gap.

- Comprehensive Insight: Goes beyond standard TSH testing to examine hormone transport
