A Test of Physiological Literacy on thyroid hormones in athletes.

Low TSH and osteoporosis.
Prolonged fasting diminishes thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) secretion by reducing burst amplitude and by blunting the nocturnal increase. It is recognized that TSH plays a role in maintaining bone health. If following a restrictive diet results in the suppression of the nocturnal rise in TSH and diminished burst of the hormone, it may be detrimental to bone health.
