The pituitary gland releases Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), which travels directly to the thyroid gland. This hormone stimulates the thyroid gland to produce the two main hormones, T3 and T4. T3 is the more active and usable form of thyroid hormone, but only 7% of the thyroid hormones produced are in the T3 form. 93% of thyroid hormone produced is T4. T4 must be converted into T3 to become useful for the body.
