    What is Cortisol - PM Test?

    The Cortisol PM test evaluates the amount of cortisol in your blood during the evening to confirm it is within the normal range. Cortisol, a hormone released by the adrenal glands located above the kidneys, is regulated by signals from the brain’s pituitary gland. This hormone reaches its peak level in the morning and gradually declines throughout the day, making an evening test after 4 p.m. essential for accurate measurement. Cortisol plays a pivotal role in stress regulation, balancing blood sugar levels, controlling inflammation, maintaining blood pressure, and supporting metabolic processes. Abnormalities in evening cortisol levels, whether excessively high or unusually low, may point to issues with adrenal or pituitary gland function or a cortisol-producing tumour.

    Without proper treatment, cortisol imbalances can cause severe health issues, highlighting the importance of the Cortisol PM test in Gurgaon as a key step in diagnosing and managing adrenal and pituitary conditions.

    Cortisol - PM Test Parameters

    The Cortisol PM test evaluates a single parameter: evening cortisol levels.

    This hormone naturally follows a circadian rhythm, with levels decreasing as the day progresses. Evening cortisol levels are typically lower to support the body’s transition to rest and recovery. In healthy individuals, cortisol peaks in the morning and drops steadily throughout the day, except in cases of an irregular sleep schedule.
