Frequently Asked Questions
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), produced by the pituitary gland in the brain, signals the thyroid gland in your neck to start producing thyroid (T3 and T4) hormones. These hormones control how your body converts food into energy (i.e., your metabolism). When these thyroid hormones get out of balance, they may cause a variety of health problems ranging from irregular heartbeat to anxiety or depression.6

Low TSH and high T4 levels typically indicate an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), suggesting that the thyroid gland is producing too much thyroid hormone. Common symptoms may include rapid heartbeat, weight loss, anxiety, and heat sensitivity. It’s important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper interpretation and potential follow-up testing or treatment.
High TSH levels often typically indicate an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism). When the thyroid gland doesn't produce enough thyroid hormone, the pituitary gland responds by increasing TSH production to stimulate the thyroid. Common symptoms may include fatigue, weight gain, cold sensitivity, and depression. It’s important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper interpretation and potential follow-up testing or treatment.
Normal TSH levels vary by age. Consult with your healthcare provider if you have questions or concerns about your results.
