A healthy subject has between '''5 and 25 µg of TG per liter''' of blood.<ref>DOI 5773064</ref> In case of thyroid dysfunction, this level may increase or decrease. For example, it decreases in the case of congenital athyreosis (insufficiency of the thyroid gland) or prior to a miscarriage due to the presence of anti-TG antibodies, but increases in the case of cancer, thyroiditis, inflammation of the thyroid or autoimmune thyroid diseases '''AITD''' <ref>DOI 24147207</ref>(Grave's disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis).<ref>DOI 11788684</ref><ref>DOI 17614775</ref> | A healthy subject has between '''5 and 25 µg of TG per liter''' of blood.<ref>DOI 5773064</ref> In case of thyroid dysfunction, this level may increase or decrease.
