What does high thyroid count mean?
TSH means thyroid stimulating hormone. The thyroid is responsible for controlling energy consumption, body temperature, weight, and heart rate; as well as your overall body metabolism. Your thyroid is dependent on your pituitary gland; another part of your endocrine system that is located at the back of the brain. Your pituitary gland produces the actual thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and regulates your TSH level; and it is the TSH levels produced by the pituitary gland that tells the thyroid to go to work. You may have an issue with the pituitary gland. Higher TSH levels than normal suggests a thyroid that is under-active and not doing its job of producing thyroid hormone.
What does tsh thyroid level stand for and what does it mean if it's high?
TSH stands for Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone, which is produced by the pituitary gland to regulate the thyroid's production of hormones. A high TSH level typically indicates that the thyroid is underactive (hypothyroidism), meaning it is not producing enough thyroid hormones. In response, the pituitary gland increases TSH output to stimulate the thyroid. Elevated TSH levels can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and sensitivity to cold.
What does the medical abbreviation TFT mean?
