Adrenocorticotropic hormone is measured to diagnose and assess conditions associated with excessively high or low cortisol levels.

PLEASE NOTE! This test is only performed between 7:00-9:00.

Description

Adrenocorticotropic hormone (corticotropin, abbreviated as ACTH) is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete cortisol and, to a lesser extent, aldosterone, androgens and oestrogens. ACTH levels are measured to diagnose adrenal insufficiency or an overactive adrenal cortex, during treatment with exogenous glucocorticoids, or in the differential diagnosis of vitiligo.

PLEASE NOTE! This test is only performed between 7:00-9:00.

RESULT TURNAROUND TIME: 1 day

* Please note that, due to special handling requirements, samples for ACTH testing are collected only at collection points located at a laboratory.

How we verify reviews

Reviews of tests can only be added by people who bought the test at BadamySie.pl. A review can only be added via the link in the e-mail sent after the order is completed, so every review is linked to an order. Our team checks text comments before they are published. We also publish negative reviews, without changing their content; we only reject spam, offensive language and personal data. The stars above the test description (“Rating: … · … ratings”) are votes from website visitors and are not verified. The reviews on the “Customer reviews” page are recommendations from our Facebook profile.
