    What is a Free Cortisol, 24 hours Urine Test?

    The Free Cortisol, 24 hours Urine test measures the levels of free cortisol, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, in the body. Cortisol plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, including regulating metabolism, reducing inflammation, and controlling the body's response to stress. It is often referred to as the "stress hormone" because its levels can rise in response to stressors. This test is performed on urine samples to assess the amount of unbound cortisol, which is not bound to any protein and is present in the urine. It helps evaluate adrenal gland function and diagnose conditions like Cushing's syndrome (high cortisol) and Addison's disease (low cortisol). Abnormal results can indicate issues with stress response, adrenal health, or hormonal imbalances that require further investigation or management.

    If you're living in Bangalore and concerned about your adrenal health, a free cortisol test can help assess how well your adrenal glands are functioning.
