TSH or Thyroid Stimulating Hormone,which is released from the pituitarygland in the brain, stimulates the C cells in the thyroid gland to produce calcium. If too much calcium is in the blood there is possibly an oversecretion of TSH from the pituitary gland.

Tsh 9.7 what does that mean?
TSH is thyroid stimulating hormone. 9.7 is the concentration of TSH in your blood.
What does a high result per a TSH blood test determine?
high TSH than the normal range means hypothyrodism.
How long should I fast for a tsh blood test?
No. Fasting is only required for lab tests which examine lipids, sugars (blood glucose, glycohemoglobin, etc.) and amino acids.
Does marijuana affect tsh level in blood test?
It adds THC to your blood. That's it,
As thyroxine levels increase in the blood they exert negative feedback on the release of TSH by the pituitary gland. What effect will this have on the release of TSH?
As thyroxine levels increase the amount of TSH produced will decrease. On the other hand, when TSH levels increase the thyroxine levels will decrease. This is what causes the TSH/thyroxine levels to fluctuate.
How the level of thyroxine in the blood affects the secretion of hormone TSH?
by excircsing
What stimulates the production of thyroxin?
Low blood calcium levels stimulate the parathyroid gland to produce parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH stimulates the osteoclasts to break down the bone matrix releasing the trapped calcium thereby raising blood calcium levels.
How does negative feedback regulate the amount of thyroxine in the blood?
blood level gets low
Where is excess calcium stored when blood calcium levels increase?
Blood
Does parathormone increase or decrease calcium levels in the blood?
It increases the concentration of calcium in the blood. Calcitonin decreases blood calcium levels.
Is hypoparathyroidism an indication for ultrasound examination?
No, it is detected with a blood test measuring your TSH and T4.
How does the thyroid gland effect calcium regulation?
"The amount of calcium in the blood is regulated by two organs: thyroid and parathyroid glands. Each gland produces hormones by sensing the amount of calcium in the blood. When calcium is high in the blood, the thyroid gland produces calcitonin, which results in the removal of excess calcium from the blood. When calcium is low in the blood, the parathyroid gland produces parathyroid hormone, which causes the release of calcium from bone into the blood."
