Understanding Your Hormone Health: The 17-Ketosteroids Urine Test
When your body feels out of balance – whether it’s unexplained fatigue, mood swings, or changes in your weight and energy levels – it can be both confusing and concerning. Your adrenal glands play a crucial role in managing stress, metabolism, and overall hormonal balance. Our 17-Ketosteroids 24-hour urine test provides the clarity you need to understand what’s really happening with your body’s hormone production.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The 17-Ketosteroids test measures specific hormone byproducts in your urine that indicate how your adrenal glands are functioning. Think of it as a comprehensive check-up for your body’s stress response system and hormone metabolism. Unlike single-point blood tests, this 24-hour collection gives us a complete picture of your hormone production throughout an entire day, providing more accurate and meaningful results.
Using advanced column chromatography technology, we analyse these hormone metabolites with exceptional precision, ensuring you receive reliable information about your adrenal health and hormone balance.

This test is particularly valuable if you’re experiencing:
- Persistent fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
