The Cortisol (PM) test is a specialized blood test that measures the level of cortisol, the primary stress hormone produced by the adrenal glands, in the bloodstream during evening or afternoon hours (typically between 3-5 PM) when cortisol levels naturally decline to their lowest point in the daily circadian rhythm, providing crucial insights into adrenal gland function, stress response, cortisol diurnal variation, and overall hormonal balance. For residents of Delhi, this test is particularly valuable when performed alongside a morning cortisol test to evaluate the normal diurnal cortisol pattern, diagnosing and evaluating adrenal gland disorders such as Cushing’s syndrome (where evening cortisol remains abnormally elevated), adrenal insufficiency, pituitary disorders affecting adrenal function, chronic stress-related conditions, sleep disturbances, unexplained fatigue, weight changes, mood disturbances, blood pressure abnormalities, and glucose metabolism issues, helping physicians identify the underlying causes of symptoms such as persistent fatigue, unexplained weight gain or loss, muscle weakness, mood changes, high or low blood pressure, abnormal blood sugar levels, or skin changes, and develop appropriate treatment strategies including hormonal therapy, stress management, lifestyle modifications, or further diagnostic evaluations for optimal adrenal health, metabolic function, and overall wellness management.With Seviyaar, Delhi residents can access NABL-certified laboratories that maintain strict quality standards for accurate diagnostic results.
