Cortisol Free 24 Hour Urine Test
Introduction
The Cortisol Free 24 Hour Urine Test is a vital diagnostic tool used to evaluate the function of the adrenal glands by measuring cortisol levels in urine collected over a full day. Cortisol is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that plays a critical role in various bodily functions, including metabolism, immune response, and stress management. This test is particularly important for individuals who may be experiencing symptoms related to adrenal gland disorders.
