Overview
This comprehensive 24-hour urine test precisely quantifies 17-hydroxycorticosteroids (cortisol metabolites) and 17-ketosteroids (androgen metabolites) using advanced LC-MS/MS technology to evaluate adrenal cortical function and diagnose disorders of the adrenal gland. By measuring these metabolites, clinicians can differentiate between Cushing’s syndrome, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and other hyperandrogenic states, guiding targeted therapeutic interventions.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY (DHA: 61713011): “As a seasoned endocrinologist, I emphasize that this urinary steroid profile is a vital baseline for diagnosing adrenal hyperfunction. Always correlate results with clinical symptoms like unexplained weight gain, hypertension, or hirsutism. Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.”
Medication Warning: Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Exclusion Criteria: Acute febrile illness, pregnancy (alters cortisol binding), or recent surgery. Postpone the test until full recovery.
- ER Red Flags: Severe hypertension (>180/110 mmHg), signs of acute adrenal insufficiency (hypotension, confusion, severe abdominal pain), or hypertensive crisis. Seek immediate emergency care.
- Protocol: If you experience sudden severe headache, palpitations, or confusion during collection, cease the test and contact the laboratory immediately.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What do elevated 17-ketosteroids indicate? ماذا تشير مستويات 17-كيتوستيرويد المرتفعة؟
Snippet Answer: Elevated 17-ketosteroids always signal adrenal androgen excess; correlate with DHEAS and imaging to diagnose CAH. This result may reflect congenital adrenal hyperplasia, an androgen-secreting adrenal tumor, or polycystic ovary syndrome. Your endocrinologist will integrate clinical findings and additional testing for a definitive diagnosis.
ارتفاع 17-كيتوستيرويدات يشير دائمًا إلى فرط الأندروجين الكظري ويجب الربط مع فحص DHEAS والتصوير لتشخيص تضخم الغدة الكظرية الخلقي.
2. How should I collect the 24-hour urine sample correctly? كيف أجمع عينة البول لمدة 24 ساعة بشكل صحيح؟
Snippet Answer: After discarding first morning urine, collect all urine for 24 hours with HCl preservative to maintain pH <5. Use the provided container and record the total volume on the test request form. Keep the collection refrigerated throughout and deliver it to the lab on the same day.
بعد التخلص من بول الصباح الأول، اجمع كل البول لمدة 24 ساعة مع إضافة مادة حافظة حمض الهيدروكلوريك (HCl) للحفاظ على الأس الهيدروجيني أقل من 5. سجّل حجم البول الكلي على النموذج.
