Cortisol, saliva

Cortisol is a adrenocortical hormone. It regulates the body's reaction to stress, participates in metabolism, has vasoconstrictor and anti-inflammatory effects, and affects the genital and immune systems. Regulates the biological clock (sleep/wakefulness)

Saliva diagnostics allows estimating the amount of biologically active form of cortisol in the body. It is used to assess the function of the adrenal cortex and diagnose endocrine pathology
