TSH: Your TSH is suppressed when you have a hyperactive thyroid.

Hyperthyroidism: Hi. Assuming you're not taking thyroid hormone(s), a suppressed TSH means you're hyperthyroid. That means your thyroid gland is autonomously overproducing thyroid hormone and not under normal control of the pituitary gland. The doctor who checked that will refer you to an endocrinologist for evaluation and treatment. You'll do fine. Good luck!
