What is Understanding Thyroid Function and Disorders about?
The thyroid gland is located in the neck below the larynx. It produces two important hormones: triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). These hormones regulate metabolism and play a vital role in growth, tissue development, and reproduction. The thyroid releases T3 and T4 in response to thyroid stimulating hormone from the pituitary gland. When levels of T3 and T4 are adequate, they provide feedback to slow production. The thyroid is essential for regulating metabolic processes throughout the body.
