Understanding Triiodothyronine - Free (FT3)

The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the front of your neck. It produces a hormone called triiodothyronine, also known as T3, that helps regulate the body’s metabolism & growth, heart rate and temperature, RBC production, the development of the tissues, and the functioning of the brain. This T3 hormone, an active form of thyroid hormone, exists in the blood in two forms: free T3 (the form that is not bound to proteins) and bound T3 (the form attached to proteins).
