About test
What does TSH - ULTRASENSITIVE measure?
This test measures thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), a hormone that helps regulate thyroid gland activity. It may be used to assess thyroid function, support evaluation of possible underactive or overactive thyroid activity, and monitor thyroid-related treatment when advised by a healthcare professional. The “ultrasensitive” measurement can detect very low TSH levels. Results should be interpreted along with clinical context and, when needed, other thyroid tests.
