Overview of the Aldosterone Blood Test

The Aldosterone Blood Test measures the level of aldosterone, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that helps regulate the body's fluid balance, sodium levels and potassium levels. Aldosterone plays an important role in maintaining normal blood pressure and supporting healthy electrolyte balance.

This is a single-biomarker hormone test that focuses specifically on measuring aldosterone levels in the bloodstream. It is commonly used as part of a broader assessment of adrenal function, hormone health and electrolyte regulation.

People may choose this test when investigating symptoms that may be associated with hormone or electrolyte imbalances, monitoring previously identified abnormalities, or obtaining additional laboratory information before consulting a GP or specialist.

Hormone levels can be influenced by medications, hydration status, posture, diet and underlying health conditions. Results should always be interpreted alongside symptoms, medical history and other relevant clinical information.
