Aldosterone


The Aldosterone blood test measures the amount of aldosterone hormone in your blood, which is produced by the adrenal glands. Abnormal levels may indicate adrenal gland disorders, blood pressure issues, or problems with fluid and salt balance. This test is commonly used alongside other hormone tests to understand the underlying cause of hypertension or dizziness.
