After they are broken down, 17-OH-corticosteroids are excreted from the body through urine.<\/p>\n<h2>Why is the analysis of 17-OH-corticosteroids in urine important?<\/h2>\n<p>This urine analysis is important because it can help diagnose various medical conditions. Elevated levels of 17-OH-corticosteroids may indicate problems with the adrenal glands, such as <strong>Cushing&#8217;s syndrome, or the presence of adrenal gland tumors, pituitary tumors, and other ectopic tumors <\/strong>that produce 17-OH-corticosteroids. On the other hand, decreased levels may indicate <strong>Addison&#8217;s disease, pituitary hypofunction (hypopituitarism), or surgical removal of the adrenal gland.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>How to prepare for the analysis?<\/h2>\n<p><em>For the analysis of 17-OH-corticosteroids, it is necessary to collect urine over 24 hours.<\/em> There are no special preparations before the test, but it is recommended to consume a sufficient amount of fluids before the test.<\/p>\n<h2>Interpreting results<\/h2>\n<p>The results of the 17-OH-corticosteroid urine analysis are interpreted based on reference values, and from these, it is determined whether the levels of these substances are possibly decreased or elevated. <strong>Normal values are 2-7 mg\/24h.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your doctor will interpret the results in the context of your symptoms, medical history, and other tests. If you have questions about the results, do not hesitate to consult with your doctor, or the staff at our laboratory.
