There are certain situations for which TSH cannot be used as a reliable test to evaluate thyroid function. TSH measurement can be misleading in persons with pituitary or hypothalamic disorders. In the presence of suspected pituitary or hypothalamic disorder, a FT4 level should be used to evaluate thyroid function. Also, TSH level is unreliable in the setting of nonthyroidal illnesses, including acute physical or mental illnesses, certain drugs, and physiologic conditions. In the presence of certain medications, TSH levels may be discordant.
