Cortisol/Creatinine Ratio, Urine
Overview
Cortisol is a hormone that is produced by the adrenal glands in response to stress and helps to regulate metabolism, immune function, blood pressure, and other bodily functions. Whereas creatinine is a waste product of muscle metabolism. This ratio can help diagnose conditions such as Cushing's syndrome, a condition characterized by an excess of cortisol in the body, or Addison's disease, a condition where the body doesn't produce enough cortisol.
