Adrenal dysfunction can manifest through a range of symptoms that significantly impact your quality of life. Common symptoms include:

Comprehensive Testing for Adrenal Function

To accurately evaluate adrenal dysfunction, we perform thorough laboratory testing, including:

• Comprehensive Saliva Testing: Assessing cortisol and other hormone levels over a 24-hour period to evaluate diurnal rhythms and adrenal function.
• Urine Testing: Measuring cortisol levels to gain insights into overall adrenal health and stress response.
