The test is recommended for those who experience symptoms that may be related to an imbalance in the thyroid hormones. Thyroid disorders are common and can cause many different symptoms, such as fatigue, weight gain, heart palpitations, and hair loss. Over 500,000 Swedes have a thyroid gland that does not function optimally. Scheduling a thyroid test can help rule out thyroid disorders as the cause of poor health. T3, T4 and TSH are all thyroid hormones that are analyzed to examine the function of the thyroid gland.
The thyroid hormones T3, T4 and TSH
T3, or triiodothyronine, is a hormone produced by the thyroid gland. T3 plays a central role in the regulation of metabolism in the body by influencing how much energy the body uses.
T4, or thyroxine, is another hormone produced by the thyroid gland. T4 is involved in the regulation of metabolism and affects how much energy the body uses.
TSH, or thyroid-stimulating hormone, is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland, a gland in the brain. TSH plays an important role in the regulation of thyroid function by signaling to the thyroid gland to produce more or less of its hormones.
Information
Hormones are substances that control processes in the body and are produced in special glands and cells in the body.
