ALDOSTERONE

The Aldosterone test measures the level of aldosterone, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that plays a key role in regulating blood pressure, sodium and potassium levels. This test is significant for diagnosing conditions related to hormone imbalances, such as primary aldosteronism (Conn's syndrome) and Addison's disease. It also helps assess the function of the adrenal glands and is useful in investigating the causes of electrolyte imbalances, hypertension and kidney disorders.
