- Why not executable
- TSH thresholds depend on the laboratory reference range, age and pregnancy, and hypothyroidism/hyperthyroidism also need free T4/T3 and clinical context. CTCAE v5.0 grades only 'TSH increased and no intervention initiated' (grade 1) and sends anything treated to 'Hypothyroidism'. Without the laboratory range and free hormone levels the answer would be 'not assessable', so no executable entry is offered. No guideline with fixed TSH cut-offs was opened.
