Norepinephrine
Explanation: Norepinephrine also known as noradrenaline, is a hormone made by adrenal glands (small organs above the kidneys) and certain nerve cells. It helps the body respond to stress by increasing heart rate, blood pressure, and energy levels. It works alongside epinephrine (adrenaline) to trigger the “fight-or-flight” response, preparing the body to act quickly in emergencies.
Test purpose: Testing its levels helps detect adrenal conditions, stress-related conditions, and autonomic nervous system problems.
- Evaluate symptoms of high stress hormones: Such as high blood pressure, rapid heartbeat, sweating, headaches, and anxiety.
- Investigate chronic fatigue or low blood pressure: Low norepinephrine levels may cause fatigue, dizziness, or trouble regulating blood pressure.
- Imbalances in norepinephrine are linked to conditions like Parkinson’s disease or mood issues such as depression.
