    What is a Catecholamines in 24 hours urine Test?

    The 24-hour urine catecholamine test measures the levels of catecholamines and their breakdown products in your urine over a full day. Catecholamines are hormones made by your adrenal glands, including dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. These hormones help your body react to stress.

    To take this test, you will collect your urine in a special container for 24 hours. The collection begins when you wake up on the first day. After urinating, collect all your urine in the container for the next 24 hours, including the next morning's sample. Once completed, label the container with your name and the time, then return it to your healthcare provider.

    Preparing for the test is important. Avoid foods and drinks like coffee and bananas that can affect the results. Make sure to tell your doctor about any medications you are taking, as some can influence the test. This test helps doctors find hormone-related health issues and check how well treatments are working for conditions like high blood pressure caused by tumours or certain childhood cancers.

    If you're in Bangalore and want to check your hormone levels, think about booking a 24-hour urine catecholamine test today.
