Pituitary Marker Profile

ACTH (Adrenocorticotropic Hormone) – Evaluates pituitary and adrenal gland function. Helps diagnose conditions like Cushing’s syndrome (high cortisol) and Addison’s disease (low cortisol), and monitors the impact of long-term corticosteroid use.

FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) – Assesses reproductive health and pituitary function. Evaluates fertility issues in both men and women and helps diagnose ovarian or testicular function problems.

GH (Growth Hormone) – Checks whether the body is producing normal levels of growth hormone, important for growth, metabolism, and muscle development.

LH (Luteinising Hormone) – In women, helps detect ovulation, diagnose PCOS, and evaluate menstrual irregularities or infertility. In men, assesses testosterone production, fertility, and pituitary health.

PRL (Prolactin) – Investigates issues such as infertility, irregular periods, abnormal lactation (galactorrhea), and pituitary gland disorders.

TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) – Evaluates thyroid function and helps diagnose and monitor conditions like hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.
