What this workflow looks like

Student

What is the main difference between primary and secondary hypothyroidism?

Assistant

Primary hypothyroidism starts in the thyroid gland, so thyroid hormone is low and TSH is typically elevated. Secondary hypothyroidism starts upstream, so TSH is low or inappropriately normal along with low thyroid hormone.

Assistant

The feedback loop explanation appears on the section discussing pituitary response to low circulating T3/T4.
