Understanding Your Cortisone Levels: Take Control of Your Hormonal Health
When your body’s natural rhythm feels off – whether it’s unexplained fatigue, sudden weight changes, or mood fluctuations that don’t make sense – it can be incredibly frustrating and concerning. The Cortisone (Compound E) 24-Hour Urine Test provides the answers you need to understand what’s happening with your adrenal function and take meaningful steps toward better health.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
Cortisone, also known as Compound E, is a crucial hormone produced by your adrenal glands that helps regulate numerous bodily functions. This comprehensive 24-hour urine test measures your body’s cortisol production patterns throughout an entire day, giving healthcare providers a complete picture of your adrenal function. Using advanced LC-MS/MS technology, we ensure the highest level of accuracy in detecting hormonal imbalances that could be affecting your quality of life.
