What is Cortisol level 1hr After Injection?
The Cortisol Level 1 Hr After Injection test measures the cortisol concentration in the blood one hour after an ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) injection. This is part of the ACTH Stimulation Test, which assesses the adrenal glands’ ability to produce cortisol in response to stimulation by ACTH.
Normally, cortisol levels should significantly increase within an hour after the injection. If cortisol levels do not rise as expected, it may indicate adrenal insufficiency, such as in Addison’s disease or secondary adrenal insufficiency.
The test is helpful in diagnosing hypofunctioning adrenal glands and evaluating the body’s stress response and hormonal balance.
What to expect & how to prepare
Cortisol level 1hr After Injection is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.
- Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
- Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
- Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
- Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your Cortisol level 1hr After Injection result rather than self-diagnosing.
