Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies
Anti-TPO antibodies attack the thyroid gland. Their presence indicates autoimmune thyroid disease — the most common cause of hypothyroidism in India.
Unit: IU/mL
High Anti-TPO (above 35): Hashimoto's thyroiditis (autoimmune hypothyroidism) or Graves' disease (autoimmune hyperthyroidism). Present in 90% of Hashimoto's patients. Having antibodies doesn't mean you need treatment — only if TSH is abnormal.
Negative/low Anti-TPO means thyroid disease (if present) is less likely to be autoimmune in origin. Other causes like iodine deficiency should be considered.
AI-verified traditional Indian remedies. Always consult a doctor for serious conditions.
200mcg/day selenium reduces Anti-TPO levels by 21% (studied)
