Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) ( IA0153 )

Description

TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) Test checks how well your thyroid gland is working. TSH is made by the pituitary gland and tells the thyroid to produce hormones that control your body’s metabolism, energy use, weight, and temperature. If the thyroid is not working properly, the TSH level changes, helping doctors understand whether the thyroid is underactive or overactive.

This test is done using a small blood sample and usually does not require any special preparation. Doctors advise this test when symptoms like tiredness, weight changes, mood changes, hair fall, or irregular periods are present, or to monitor people already on thyroid treatment.
