CORTISOL STIMULATION BY ACTH Test: Cost, Symptoms, Diagnosis

Have you been experiencing symptoms like fatigue, weakness, weight gain, or high blood pressure? These could be signs of a cortisol deficiency or excess. The cortisol stimulation by ACTH test is a diagnostic tool that measures the levels of cortisol in your blood and can help identify any imbalances.

What is Cortisol?

Cortisol is a hormone produced by the adrenal gland, which is responsible for regulating various bodily functions. It plays a vital role in managing stress, inflammation, blood sugar levels, and blood pressure. Cortisol levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day, with the highest levels in the morning and the lowest at night.

What is the ACTH Test?

The ACTH test is a diagnostic test that measures the levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in your blood. ACTH is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that stimulates the adrenal gland to produce cortisol. The test involves taking a blood sample and measuring the cortisol levels before and after an injection of synthetic ACTH.

What are the Symptoms of Cortisol Imbalances?

Cortisol imbalances can cause a variety of symptoms, including:

  • Fatigue
  • Weakness
  • Weight gain
  • High blood pressure
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Insomnia
  • Irregular menstruation

How is the ACTH Test Performed?

The ACTH test is a simple blood test that takes about 30 minutes to complete. You will need to fast for a few hours before the test, and your doctor may ask you to stop taking certain medications. During the test, a healthcare professional will take a blood sample and measure your cortisol levels. Then, they will inject synthetic ACTH into your bloodstream and take additional blood samples at regular intervals to measure your cortisol levels again.

What is the Cost of the ACTH Test?

The cost of the ACTH test varies depending on the lab and location. In India, the average cost of the test is around INR 1930.5.

Conclusion

The cortisol stimulation by ACTH test is a useful tool for diagnosing cortisol imbalances and identifying the underlying cause of your symptoms. If you are experiencing any of the symptoms mentioned above, talk to your doctor about whether the ACTH test is right for you.
