What this test is

The ACTH test is a blood test that evaluates the level of adrenocorticotropic hormone, which is produced by the pituitary gland. This hormone plays a crucial role in stimulating the adrenal glands to release cortisol.

What the test involves

The test involves a standard blood draw, typically from a vein in your arm. A healthcare professional will collect the blood sample for analysis.

Why it is often ordered

Clinicians generally order the ACTH test to investigate adrenal gland disorders or to evaluate pituitary function. It helps in understanding hormone imbalances in the body.

Preparation
