TSH 3rd Generation Blood Test in Chennai

Overview

A TSH  3rd gen test in Chennai is an immunoassay that measures TSH levels in the blood. The test is conducted to detect the underlying cause of thyroid disorders. It also analyzes the normal functioning of the thyroid gland. 

TSH is synthesized by the pituitary gland and stimulates the thyroid gland to release T4 and T3 in the blood. Both of these hormones control the utilization of energy in the body. Moreover, it is quite interesting to know the fact that TSH levels in the blood are regulated by the hypothalamus. Hence, the hypothalamus, thyroid gland, and pituitary gland are required to function properly for maintaining the thyroid hormones in the blood. The clinician will ask you to go for a TSH test for detecting free T3, free T4, Total T3, and Total T4 hormones in the blood. He will prescribe the test as per the individual’s health condition.
