About this test

The anti-TPO antibody test detects autoantibodies against thyroid peroxidase, an enzyme essential for thyroid hormone production.

A normal result is typically below about 34 IU/mL, varying by lab.

Raised anti-TPO is the most sensitive marker of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, present in over 90% of cases, and is also common in Graves’ disease. It predicts progression of mild (subclinical) hypothyroidism to overt disease.

In pregnancy, positive anti-TPO increases the risk of miscarriage, preterm birth, and postpartum thyroiditis. Some healthy people, especially women, may also test positive.

Questions about this test

When should I get the Anti TPO Ab. test?

You should get an anti-TPO antibody test if you have high TSH or subclinical hypothyroidism, a goiter, or symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, or cold intolerance. It is also recommended for infertility, recurrent miscarriage, pregnancy planning, type 1 diabetes or other autoimmune diseases, and a family history of thyroid disease.

How should I prepare for the Anti TPO Ab. test?

No special preparation or fasting is required for an anti-TPO antibody test. Stop biotin supplements 48–72 hours beforehand, as biotin may interfere with results. Inform your doctor about any thyroid medicines, pregnancy, or recent childbirth, and bring previous TSH and thyroid hormone reports if available.

Do I require fasting for the Anti TPO Ab. test?

No, fasting is not required for an anti-TPO antibody test. You can eat and drink normally before giving your sample, and the test can be done at any time of day. However, stop biotin supplements 48–72 hours beforehand, as biotin may interfere with the results.
