Which hormone causes grave's disease?
Grave's disease is an autoimmune disease which causes hyperthyroidism.(particularly in the developed countries). normally TSH combines with the surface receptors of thyroid cells and causes the synthesis and secretion of thyroid hormones. in Grave's disease the thyroid stimulating autoantibodies (B-TSAB) produced by B lymphocytes activate the TSH receptors and increase the secretion of thyroid hormones(thyroxine and triiodothyronine). Grave's disease is due to elevated thyroid stimulating IgG also knoen as long acting thyroid stimulator (LATS) which activates TSH and, thereby, increases thyroid hormonal production.
What type of thyroid test is a LATS?
The long-acting thyroid stimulator (LATS) test shows whether blood contains long-acting thyroid stimulator. Not normally present in blood, LATS causes the thyroid to produce and secrete abnormally high amounts of hormones.
What is the possible cause or causes of under active thyroid disease?

An underactive thyroid also occurs due to Hashimoto's thyroiditis (a thyroid autoimmune condition) as well as postpartum thyrioditis. Thyroid conditions are hereditary in nature, especially among women.
What causes any of the symptoms of hypothyroidism?
The thyroid hormones thyroxine and tri-iodothyronine are under produced. It is these hormones that regulate the rate of the metabolic process so a lack of them slows down bodily functions.
What causes low temperature?
Try looking up "Wilson's Temperature Syndrome." An imbalance of the hormones the Thyroid produces. The typical thyroid test may show that it is working normally, which it probably is. Good luck.
