What's included in this test?
TSH
Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that regulates the production of thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) by the thyroid gland. TSH levels increase when thyroid hormone levels are low, and decrease when thyroid hormone levels are high. Abnormal TSH levels can indicate problems with the thyroid gland, such as under or overproduction of thyroid hormones. It can also be a result of pituitary gland disorders.
Sampling special instructions
Prepare for your Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Blood Test by following these instructions and those within your test kit. There is no specific preparation required for this test, and you can take it at any time of the day. However, if you are taking any thyroid medications, it is important to inform your healthcare provider, as they may recommend adjustments to your medication schedule before the test. Additionally, avoid taking biotin supplements for two days before the test, and discuss this with your doctor if you have been prescribed biotin. Following these instructions will help ensure accurate results for your TSH levels.
