Adrenal Function Profile-Doctor's Data Kit (formerly Labrix):
Note: This is a home collection test kit that will be mailed to you.
Fasting Required: No
Lab: Doctor's Data
Specimen: 4 Saliva Samples
Results: Average processing time 3-5 business days
Note: Result turnaround times are an estimate and are not guaranteed. Our reference lab may need additional time due to weather, holidays, confirmation/repeat testing, or equipment maintenance.
Description: This panel provides a comprehensive view of adrenal function and includes 4 cortisol levels timed throughout the day as well as DHEA. Cortisol levels should be at their highest level 30 minutes after waking in the morning, decreasing gradually over the course of the day, reaching their lowest point at bedtime. The resulting curve or pattern allows health care providers to pinpoint issues with adrenal gland function. Alterations in this pattern can result in symptoms related to stress, fatigue and insomnia. DHEA levels naturally decline with age, although alterations can be seen as part of the stress response.
