What hormone regulates thyroid function?
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) regulates thyroid function by stimulating the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones such as thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). High levels of TSH can indicate an underactive thyroid, while low levels can indicate an overactive thyroid.
What happens to the TSH levels and TH levels when a person has hypothyroidism?
In hypothyroidism, the levels of thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) are low due to an underactive thyroid gland. In response to this deficiency, the pituitary gland produces more thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) to stimulate the thyroid to produce more hormones. Consequently, TSH levels are elevated in individuals with hypothyroidism. This combination of low thyroid hormone levels and high TSH is a key indicator of the condition.
