Endocrine Society Releases Statement on Chemicals That Affect our Thyroid, Hormones and Endocrine System
Endocrine Society Releases a Scientific Statement on Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals The Endocrine Society — conducting its annual meeting in Washington, DC this week — has just released a 50+ page detailed Scientific Statement on Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals. According to the EPA, endocrine disruptors are chemicals that mimic a natural hormone, fool the body into over-responding to the stimulus (e.g., thyroid hormone that results in hyperthyroidism), or respond at inappropriate times (e.g., producing thyroid hormone when it is not needed). Other endocrine disrupting chemicals block the effects of a hormone from certain receptors (e.g. thyroid hormones required for normal development). Still others directly stimulate or inhibit the endocrine system and cause overproduction or underproduction of hormones (e.g. an over or underactive thyroid). Certain drugs are used to intentionally cause some of these effects, such as birth control pills. In many situations involving environmental chemicals, however, an endo

Endocrinologists Say TSH Normal Range is Now 0.3 to 3 -- Normal Thyroid Blood Test Range
American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists recommends narrowing the normal reference range for the TSH -- thyroid stimulating hormone -- test to 0.3 to 3.0.

It would also mean that the number of people in the U.S. who are hypothyroid could be double previous estimates.

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About the TSH Thyroid Test
Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About the TSH Thyroid Test If you have a thyroid problem — or even suspect you have one — there is almost no way to escape the TSH test.

For example, check out this fast recap, essentially a crash course on the TSH test. In less than a minute, you'll understand the essentials.
