A member asked:
What is high tsh, 3rd generation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Same as others: The 3d generation TSH assays are best at the lowest ranges - the upper range is debatable as tsh, unlike most products in the blood is not distributed in populations in a bell curve. The upper limits of the "normal" range of 4 to 5 in assays of all generations is probably wrong.
