Hypothyroidism can be checked easily through a simple blood test. Your doctor will check your hormone levels to determine if you have hypothyroidism. However, in case of hyperthyroidism, your doctor will examine your thyroid gland to find out if it is bigger than the usual size. Your fingers might also shiver when you hold them out straight.
