Cortisol (Stress) Home Blood Test
Cortisol (Stress) Home Blood Test
The Cortisol Home Blood Test offers a convenient and accurate way to monitor your body’s cortisol levels, an essential hormone involved in managing stress, metabolism, and immune function. Cortisol, often referred to as the “stress hormone,” plays a vital role in helping the body respond to physical and emotional challenges. Studies from institutions such as King’s College London and clinical guidelines from the Endocrine Society emphasise the importance of balanced cortisol levels for maintaining overall health and wellbeing. This test allows you to check your cortisol status from the comfort of your own home, providing valuable insights into conditions related to adrenal function and stress response.
What Does It Test For?
This test measures the amount of cortisol circulating in your blood at the time of sample collection. Cortisol levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day, peaking in the morning to help you wake up and gradually declining towards the evening. Abnormal cortisol levels may indicate issues such as adrenal insufficiency, Cushing’s syndrome, chronic stress, or other endocrine disorders. By tracking your cortisol, you and your healthcare provider can better understand your stress response and adrenal health.
