Description

The AdrenoSCAN is a non-invasive dried urine test designed to assess your body’s stress and sleep hormone patterns across the day. By measuring cortisol, cortisone, and melatonin at four key time points, this profile provides a clear window into your circadian rhythm, adrenal health, and sleep–wake regulation.

What’s Measured?

  • Cortisol (x4)
  • Cortisone (x4)
  • Melatonin (x4)

Why Test These Hormones?

Cortisol and melatonin operate in a delicate rhythm that governs energy, mood, metabolism, and sleep quality. Disruptions in this rhythm are often linked to:

  • Chronic stress or burnout
  • Insomnia and poor sleep cycles
  • Low energy, fatigue, or brain fog
  • Mood fluctuations or anxiety
  • HPA axis dysregulation (adrenal fatigue)

 

Key Features:

  • Total cortisol & cortisone values and ratios
  • Graph representing diurnal cortisol rhythm
  • Melatonin values (morning to evening)
  • Graph representing diurnal melatonin rhythm
