TSH Is Not a Thyroid Hormone
Traditional doctors often perform incomplete testing and prescribe a medication for the rest of your life. TSH is not a thyroid hormone, it is a brain hormone. But medicine relies on this number for clinical thyroid diagnosis. There is much more to the story than this. Production, transportation, conversion, absorption and destruction are all areas that can get in the way of normal thyroid function. But TSH and medical testing doesn’t scratch the surface.
