About this test

Do you want to know more about your cortisol level? Perhaps you have symptoms of an adrenal function disorder, and your healthcare advisor has recommended a 9am cortisol test as an initial investigation. Our cortisol test checks whether your cortisol is in the normal range. An abnormal cortisol level is often due to chronic stress, but, in rare cases, it can indicate an underlying condition like Addison's disease or Cushing's syndrome.
