22 Δεκ 2023 · The thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) test measures the amount of TSH in the blood to convey how well a person’s thyroid functions. Normal levels are typically 0.4 to 4.0 milliunits...
9 Οκτ 2024 · Normal thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels generally fall between 0.4 and 4.5 milliunits per liter (mU/L). TSH levels higher than 4.5 mU/L usually indicate an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism), and low TSH levels—below 0.4 mU/L—indicate an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism).
3 Οκτ 2023 · For instance, a high TSH and low T4 may suggest Hashimoto’s disease, while a low TSH and high T4 may suggest Graves' disease. Different combinations of values can mean different things, and there is often more than one meaning.
5 Σεπ 2023 · Tests measuring free T4 – either a free T4 (FT4) or free T4 index (FTI) – more accurately reflect how the thyroid gland is functioning when checked with a TSH. The finding of an elevated TSH and low FT4 or FTI indicates primary hypothyroidism due to disease in the thyroid gland.
The usual blood tests done for thyroid function are TSH, T4 and sometimes T3. In most cases, your TSH level will be the first hormone to be measured, because if this is normal, it is very likely that your thyroid is functioning normally.
