In primary hypothyroidism, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels are elevated. In primary hyperthyroidism, TSH levels are low. Elevated or low TSH in the context of normal free thyroxine is often referred to as subclinical hypo- or hyperthyroidism, respectively. In hyperthyroidism, both thyroxine (tetraiodothyronine; thyroxine: T4) and T3 levels (total and free) are usually elevated, but in a small subset of hyperthyroid patients (T3 toxicosis) only T3 is elevated. Free thyroxine (fT4) comprises a small fraction of total thyroxine. The fT4 is available to the tissues and is, therefore, the metabolically active fraction. Elevations in fT4 cause hyperthyroidism, while decrease causes hypothyroidism. Disorders of the thyroid gland are frequently caused by autoimmune mechanisms with the production of autoantibodies known as anti-TPO antibodies.
