Test Details

The TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) test measures the level of TSH in your blood. TSH is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that regulates the thyroid gland's activity. This test is crucial in assessing thyroid function and diagnosing thyroid disorders.

Blood Sample: A healthcare provider will collect a blood sample, typically from a vein in your arm, using a needle and a syringe or a specialized blood collection tube.

Laboratory Analysis: The blood sample is sent to a laboratory for analysis. There, the concentration of TSH is measured.

Fasting is generally not required for the TSH test. You can usually eat and drink normally before the test.

It's essential to inform your healthcare provider about any medications, supplements, or recent medical procedures, as they can affect the results.

You may feel a brief pinch or discomfort when the needle is inserted to draw the blood sample. After the procedure, there might be some mild bruising or soreness at the site, but this is typically temporary.s.

Normal TSH levels generally fall within the range established by the laboratory performing the test. Typical reference ranges are:

Normal: Approximately 0.4 to 4.0 milliunits per liter (mU/L
