Individual tests

ACTH is a pituitary gland hormone that controls cortisol production. Cortisol, an adrenal gland hormone helps you respond to stress, fight infection, and regulate blood sugar and blood pressure. The test is often done with a cortisol test to diagnose pituitary or adrenal gland disorders.
An AMH test checks a woman's ability to produce eggs for fertilization, known as the ovarian reserve. It can also determine the reasons for menopause, amenorrhea, or lack of menstruation and help diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). It can help check infants with genitals not identified as male or female and monitor women with certain types of ovarian cancer.
Cortisol is a hormone made by your adrenal glands, two small glands that sit above the kidneys. It affects almost every organ and tissue in your body that help respond to stress, reduce inflammation, regulate blood sugar, or control blood pressure.

DHEAS is important in testosterone and estrogen production. It plays a role in the development of male sexual characteristics at puberty. DHEAS is mostly made in the adrenal glands. Smaller amounts of DHEAS are made in a man’s testicles and a woman’s ovaries. Abnormal DHEAS levels may suggest a problem with your adrenal glands, testicles, or ovaries.
Estradiol, the most important form of estrogen, plays a vital role in sexual development. This test is used to determine the cause of early or late puberty, evaluate how the ovaries function, and monitor the progression of pregnancy or fertility treatment.
Testosterone is known as a "male" sex hormone, but females also have smaller amounts. It causes body hair, muscle growth, and a deepening voice after puberty in males. It controls sex drive, muscle mass, and helps make sperm. In females, testosterone is important for the growth of bones and muscles. A free testosterone levels test can help diagnose early or delayed puberty.
FSH works closely with another hormone called LH to control sexual functions. In women, these tests help find the cause of infertility, assess ovarian function, find the reason for irregular or stopped menstrual periods, and confirm the start of menopause or perimenopause. In men, these tests can find the cause of infertility, the reason for a low sperm count, or a problem with the testicles. In children, these tests can help diagnose early or delayed puberty.
When you eat, carbohydrates within the food are broken down into glucose molecules. Glucose provides energy for cellular processes and aids metabolism. When an individual is hyperglycemic and cannot properly regulate their blood glucose level, they are considered diabetic. Type 1 diabetes is caused by the immune system attacking pancreatic beta cells (cells that produce insulin), and Type 2 diabetes is caused by insulin resistance.
When food is ingested, carbohydrates are broken down into glucose molecules. Glucose provides energy for cellular processes and aids metabolism. When an individual is hyperglycemic and cannot regulate their blood glucose level, they are considered diabetic. A 1-hour postprandial blood sugar test helps assess blood glucose regulation.

When an individual is hyperglycemic and cannot properly regulate their blood glucose level, they are considered diabetic. A 2-hour postprandial blood sugar test helps assess blood glucose regulation.
Glucose is a sugar your body produces when it digests carbohydrates and is the chief energy source for living organisms. Too much or too little glucose in the blood can indicate a serious medical condition. High blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia) may be a sign of diabetes, a chronic disease with many possible complications. Low blood sugar can lead to major health problems, including brain damage and seizures.

This test for diabetes screening and monitoring of treatment effectiveness measures the average glucose attached to Hemoglobin in blood over 120 days.
