Understanding Your Hormonal Health: The Complete Adrenal Function Test
Are you experiencing unexplained fatigue, sudden weight changes, or mood swings that just don’t make sense? Many South Africans struggle with these symptoms without realizing they could be linked to adrenal hormone imbalances. Our 17-Hydroxy Corticosteroids and 17-Ketosteroids 24-Hour Urine Test provides the comprehensive insights you need to understand what’s really happening with your body’s stress response and hormone production.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
This specialized test measures two crucial hormone groups over a 24-hour period to give us a complete picture of your adrenal gland function. The 17-Hydroxy Corticosteroids help us understand your cortisol levels – your body’s primary stress hormone – while the 17-Ketosteroids provide insights into androgen production, which affects energy, mood, and metabolic function.
Unlike single blood tests that only show hormone levels at one moment, this 24-hour urine collection captures your body’s natural hormone rhythms throughout the day, giving us the most accurate assessment of your adrenal health.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you’re experiencing:
- Persistent fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Unexplained weight gain or difficulty losing weight
- Mood swings, anxiety, or irritability
- Sleep disturbances or insomnia
- Low libido or sexual function changes
- Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
- High stress levels affecting your daily life
- Family history of endocrine disorders
Many patients in Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban have found life-changing answers through this comprehensive testing approach.
