Cortisol Blood Test – At-Home Stress & Adrenal Function Check

Monitor Your Cortisol Levels with a Simple Blood Test

The Cortisol Blood Test from Repose Healthcare is a convenient, accurate way to measure your cortisol levels, providing essential insight into your stress response and adrenal health. Cortisol, often referred to as the “stress hormone,” plays a critical role in regulating metabolism, blood pressure, immune function, and sleep-wake cycles.

Monitoring cortisol can help detect hormonal imbalances, stress-related conditions, and potential adrenal disorders, enabling timely medical intervention and personalised lifestyle adjustments.

What is Cortisol?

Cortisol is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, released in response to stress and low blood-glucose levels. It helps:

• Regulate metabolism and blood sugar

• Control blood pressure

• Modulate immune responses

• Support brain function

• Maintain energy levels throughout the day

Imbalances can lead to conditions such as Cushing’s syndrome (high cortisol) or Addison’s disease (low cortisol), as well as chronic stress-related health issues.

Why Test Cortisol Levels?

Measuring cortisol levels is essential if you experience:

• Persistent fatigue or low energy

• Unexplained weight gain or loss

• Sleep disturbances or insomnia

• Anxiety, depression, or mood swings

• High blood pressure or metabolic concerns

• Suspected adrenal gland disorders

Testing at home provides a convenient, non-invasive way to understand your hormone levels and take proactive steps toward better health.

How the Cortisol Blood Test Works

1. Order your test online – discreet delivery to your home.

2. Sample collection – a finger-prick blood sample or standard venous blood draw (depending on kit type).

Understanding Your Results

Cortisol levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day. Your report will include reference ranges for:

• Morning cortisol levels – typically higher upon waking

• Afternoon cortisol levels – expected to decline naturally

• Abnormal results – may indicate hypercortisolism (too much cortisol) or hypocortisolism (too little cortisol)

Results are presented in an easy-to-understand format and can be shared with your GP or endocrinologist for further guidance.

Conditions Linked to Cortisol Imbalance

High cortisol levels may be associated with:

• Cushing’s syndrome

• Chronic stress or anxiety disorders

• High blood pressure and metabolic syndrome

• Weight gain, particularly around the abdomen

Low cortisol levels may be linked to:

• Addison’s disease

• Adrenal insufficiency

• Fatigue and low blood pressure

• Electrolyte imbalances

Regular monitoring can help manage stress, optimise adrenal health, and support long-term well-being.
