Overview
Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that regulates the production of thyroid hormones, triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4), by the thyroid gland. TSH levels are used as an indicator of thyroid function, with abnormal levels suggesting hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) or hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid). The TSH test is often used as a screening tool for thyroid disorders and to monitor the effectiveness of thyroid hormone replacement therapy.
Description
Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones, specifically triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). TSH regulates the thyroid gland’s activity, ensuring that the right amount of thyroid hormones are produced to meet the body’s needs. When thyroid hormone levels are low, TSH is released to stimulate the thyroid gland to produce more hormones, and when thyroid hormone levels are high, TSH production is decreased to slow down hormone production.
