    What Is a Serotonin5-Hydroxy Tryptamine Serum Test?

    The Serotonin 5-Hydroxy Tryptamine Serum test is a blood test that detects the levels of serotonin in the blood. Serotonin, also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), is a key neurotransmitter produced primarily in the brainstem, influencing a range of functions including mood, memory, digestion, sleep, and appetite. While about 90% of serotonin is found in the gut, only about 10% is synthesized in the brain.

    Serotonin syndrome is a potentially dangerous condition caused by excessively high serotonin levels, often due to increased medication doses or combining drugs that elevate serotonin. Mild symptoms include shivering, sweating, confusion, and muscle twitches, while severe symptoms can involve high fever, seizures, fainting, and abnormal heart rhythms. If not treated quickly, severe cases can be fatal, making early detection crucial. Low serotinin levels are linked to conditions like anxiety and depression.

    If you live in Bangalore you can check your serotonin levels with the Serotonin 5-Hydroxy Tryptamine Serum test at home.
