What to watch with TSH and Haut?

The question about TSH and skin is clinically relevant because thyroid hormones affect skin function. Elevated TSH (hypothyroidism) can cause dry, scaly skin, reduced sweating, and myxedema. Low TSH (hyperthyroidism) can lead to warm, moist skin, increased sweating, and pruritus. However, there are no specific DNA markers from MyBody-X that directly link TSH and skin. The evidence is based on clinical practice, not genetic testing. Caveat: TSH levels should be evaluated by a physician; skin changes have many causes. MyBody-X tests are not diagnostic for thyroid disorders. If abnormalities are present, consult an endocrinologist or dermatologist.
