What does the medical abbreviation TPO mean?
TPO stands for "Thyroid Peroxidase", an enzyme involved in the production of thyroid hormones in the body. Elevated levels of TPO antibodies are often associated with autoimmune thyroid disorders such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis.
What does an elevated thyroid pyridoxamine level do to the body?
Thyroid Pyroxidase Antibodies mean that there are antibodies in your blood that are targeting thyroid peroxidase (TPO) TPO is located inside thyroid cells. This is a sign that there has been destruction of thyroid cells. The antibodies attack thyroid cells, resulting in thyroid destruction and dysfunction. This results in metabolic imbalance that can eventually, if not treated, can cause death.

Does increased thyroid hormone production increase or decrease TSH production?
Increase in thyroid hormone will lower TSH production, because there is a feedback loop between TSH that stimulates the production of thyroid hormone and the hormone that then will then regulate the stimulation of TSH so that thyroid hormone is not over produced.
An increase in the bloods level of a thyroid gland hormone decreases the release of thyroid stimulating hormone. what does this mechanism illustrate?

What foods stimulate thyroid?

Regulation of the release of T3 and T4 from the thyroid gland is controlled by negative feedback?
When the level of the thyroxine increase, the level of the thyroid stimulating hormone decrease. So in turn the level of the thyroid hormone decreases. When the level of the thyroxine decrease, the level of the thyroid stimulating hormone increase. This in turn increase the level of the thyroxine. This explanation does not explain to how the level of the hormone is regulated at that particular level. But then this explanation satisfy most of the people.
