Welcome to the forum, Biiyyaa.

It's hard to say as different GP practices have different protocols. Some will only test TSH but others will test TSH and FT4. Most will only test thyroid peroxidase antibodies if TSH is abnormal.

Biiyyaa,

TSH is Thyroid Stimulating Hormone.

FSH is Follicle Stimulating Hormone which is to do with the ovaries.
