Reverse T3
Reverse T3
Under normal conditions, the body converts T4 to T3 and RT3 in specific ratios. In certain circumstances, the amount converted to RT3 rises, such as when the body is under stress, as in cases of serious or acute illness or physical injury. Increased levels of RT3 have been noticed in severe trauma, severe infection, starvation, anorexia, as well as after surgery. RT3 levels alone may not be indicative of a thyroid condition, so this test may be ordered with other thyroid hormones such as TSH, T4 and T3.
