GlossaryThyrotropin-Releasing Hormone

hormone from the hypothalamus that stimulates thyroid-stimulating hormone release

Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH) is a hormone produced in the hypothalamus, a region of the brain. It stimulates the pituitary gland to release thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which in turn prompts the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones. These thyroid hormones are crucial for regulating metabolism, energy levels, and overall growth and development.
