Thyroid-stimulating hormone. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (also known as thyrotropin, thyrotropic hormone, TSH, or hTSH for human TSH) is a pituitary hormone that stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroxine (T4), and then triiodothyronine (T3) which stimulates the metabolism of almost every tissue in the body.
TSH â thyroid stimulating hormone TSH is a hormone made by the pituitary gland after it samples the circulating levels of thyroid hormones. The pituitary gland responds to low levels of thyroid hormone by making more TSH and to high levels of thyroid hormone by making more TSH in most cases.
