FAQ

Which medications or drugs can affect the result of cortisol tests?

Oestrogen and glucocorticoids (steroids) can affect the result of cortisol tests. Speak to your doctor about any medications you may be taking, before running this test.

How do increased cortisol levels cause damage to the kidneys?

Cortisol acts on mineralocorticoid receptors present in the kidney which result in an increase in blood pressure which can be harmful.

Why is a 24-hour urine cortisol test beneficial in comparison to a blood or saliva test?

While blood or saliva tests only detect cortisol at one specific time, a 24-hour urine cortisol test evaluates the total quantity of cortisol excreted in the urine throughout a 24-hour period. 24-hour urine cortisol testing offers more thorough data since cortisol secretion varies throughout the day.

Overview of the Cortisol 24-hour Urine Test  

Cortisol affects almost every organ and plays crucial roles in stress response, regulation of blood glucose levels, metabolism, and fighting infections.

This test calculates the total cortisol content in a urine sample that was obtained over a 24-hour period.

The Cortisol 24-hour Urine test can provide important clues about adrenocortical dysfunction, where cortisol levels become high, which is helpful for clinicians in planning treatment. Book Cortisol 24-hour urine test near you to detect problems associated with pituitary or adrenal glands.
