For how long does the thyroxine is stored in the thyroid follicle?
High-Yield Explanation
After synthesis of the thyroid hormones, each thyroglobulin molecule contains up to 30 thyroxine molecules and a few triiodothyronine molecules. In this form, the thyroid hormones are stored in the follicles in an amount sufficient to supply the body with its normal requirements of thyroid hormones for 2 to 3 months.
