TSH
The thyroid gland secretes thyroid hormone. The hormone regulates metabolism. If u secrete too much thyroid hormone, it can lead to obesity-related problems such as hypertension and heat-intolerance. If u secrete too little thyroid hormone, it can lead to tremendous weight-loss and other underweight problems. Luckily, our hypothalamus and pituitary gland are there to regulate this hormone.
thyroxine is produced in the Thyroid gland
Thyroid-stimulating hormone or TSH. When the thyroid is under-active the pituitary secretes more TSH to try to make the thyroid release its own hormones (T3 and T4).
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.
Levothyroxine is a synthetic thyroid hormone used to treat hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland doesnot produce enough thyroid hormone.

Wikipedia: "In biology, permissiveness is a certain relationship between hormones and the target cell. It can be applied to describe situations in which the presence of one hormone, at a certain concentration, is required in order to allow a second hormone to fully affect the target cell. For example, thyroid hormone increases the number of receptors available for epinephrine at the latter's target cell, thereby increasing epinephrine's effect at that cell. Without the thyroid hormone, epinephrine would have only a weak effect"
Unlike some medical terminology, this one is kind of straightforward. Thyroid-stimulating hormone is what stimulates the thyroid to produce thyroid hormone.
Many things are necessary for the production of thyroid hormone. *Fuel* for the thyroid to produce thyroid hormone however, is iodine.
A hormone is a chemical, not a cell. They thyroid gland that secretes the thyroid hormone (which is called thyroxin) is composed of cells.
The hormone called as thyroid stimulating hormone stimulates the production of the thyroid hormone. It comes from anterior lobe of the pituitary. There is negative feed back system to regulate the hormone production in your body.
thyroid hormone
Yes! a thyroid gland IS an endocrine gland
The majority of secreted thyroid hormone is T4 - the storage hormone.
No, thyroid hormones are associated with regulating metabolism.
Thyroid hormone.
Thyroxine is the hormone.It is secreted by thyroid.
