TSH
TEST RESULT UNIT REFERENCE
0.35-5.1 mIU/mL - Pregnant : T1 : 0.05-
Thyroid Stimulating Hormones (TSH) 12.26 µIU/mL 4.73 mIU/ML T2 : 0.30-4.79 mIU/ML T3
: 0.50-6.02 mIU/ML
NOTES : The thyroid gland is normally regulated by Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) also called Thyrotropin, which
is secreted by the pituitary. TSH secretion is also influenced by Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) synthesized
in the Hypothalamus. TSH stimulates the thyroid gland to produce and release .Thyroxine (T4) and Triiodothyronine
(T3) . T4 and T3 are released from the Thyroid into the blood stream, where they are bound to the serum proteins.
Thyroxine-binding prealbumin, Albumin and Thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG). TBG normally accounts for about
75% of the bound hormones. About 0.03% of the total serum T4 and 0.3% of the total serum T3 are free. Only free
T4 and T3 are metabolically active. Hereditary disorders in TBG production, Acute Liver disease and Medications such
as Methadone, Aspirin ,Pregnancy, increased Estrogen level are additional causes of an increased TBG level. Certain
circumstances, including stress, Trauma, Medications, infections and temperature fluctuations, few drugs change the
amount of Thyroid hormone required by the body, causing altered TSH level therefore this report should be read in
conjunction with other clinical findings and investigation.
NOTE: PLEASE CORRELATE WITH CLINICAL CONDITION. DISCLAIMER: THIS REPORT IS ELECTRONICALLY SIGNED.
