In this video, Doctor Furlan explains what are the T3 and T4 hormones produced by the thyroid gland, and why we measure the brain hormone TSH to diagnose a problem with the thyroid. Did you know that 12% of the world population has some kind of thyroid disease? Hypothyroidism is the most common thyroid problem, and there is treatment. The symptoms of hypothyroidism are very vague and affect the whole body. The diagnosis is very easy, it is a simple blood test measuring the brain hormone Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH).
