It makes thyroid-stimulating hormone, or TSH, which tells the thyroid gland how much T4 and T3 to produce. The TSH level in your blood reveals how much T4 your pituitary gland is asking your thyroid gland to make. If your TSH levels are abnormally high, it could mean you have an underactive thyroid, or hypothyroidism. âTSH levels go in the opposite direction of your thyroid hormone,â Dr. Doria-Medina explains.
When a TSH test is ordered, I am trying to determine exactly how much of this hormone TSH is circulating in the blood. This provides me with information about how the thyroid and metabolism are working. When the TSH level is high, it is producing too much âstimulatingâ hormone, which may indicate hypothyroidism.The converse to that is â if it produces too little, and the TSH level is low, then the thyroid is hyperactive. Generally the TSH level is ordered depending on your symptoms.hen a TSH test is ordered, I am trying to determine exactly how much of this hormone TSH is circulating in the blood.
