    Glossary Serum Cortisol

    measure of cortisol hormone level in the bloodstream

    Serum cortisol, also known as blood cortisol, is a measure of the cortisol hormone level in the bloodstream. Cortisol, produced by the adrenal glands, plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, immune response, and stress. Abnormal levels can indicate conditions such as Cushing's syndrome or Addison's disease, making this test important for diagnosing and managing various health issues.
