TEST DETAILS
Cortisol is produced in the adrenal glands and is released in response to stressors like illness and exercise. This test measures your cortisol levels to determine whether your levels are high or low.
Cortisol plays an important role in a number of things your body does. For example, it:
- Manages how your body uses carbohydrates, fats, and proteins
- Keeps inflammation down
- Regulates your blood pressure
- Increases your blood sugar (glucose)
- Controls your sleep/wake cycle
- Boosts energy so you can handle stress and restores balance afterward
Is this Test Right for Me
Testing alone cannot be used to diagnose a medical condition. Your healthcare provider will use your test results, in combination with your symptoms, medical history, family history, and physical exam, to determine the appropriate next steps for evaluation and treatment.
Your test results will provide detailed information on the key biomarkers measured and whether levels are normal, low, or high. When measured together, the levels of these indicators offer a broader overview and greater insight into your overall health and wellness.
The biomarkers measured by saliva are:
You should take this test if you suffer from:
- Weight gain
- Large purple coloured stretch marks
- Hyperpigmentation of your skin
- Low or high blood sugar
- Chronic abdominal pain

How do I know if I have too much cortisol?
Too much cortisol can cause some of the hallmark signs of Cushing syndrome — a fatty hump between your shoulders, a rounded face, and pink or purple stretch marks on your skin. Cushing syndrome can also result in high blood pressure, bone loss and, on occasion, type 2 diabetes.
How can I test my cortisol levels at home?
By ordering a saliva kit from Dm6 Health you can take these tests at home. Once our lab analyzes the test, people usually receive their results within a few days. Individuals should follow up on any test results with a healthcare professional.
