Special Instructions

Prepare for your test by following these instructions. Take your sample between 6am and 10am. Avoid vigorous exercise or sexual activity for 48 hours beforehand – both can raise your prolactin level. If you have an unusual sleep pattern, your cortisol results may be unreliable. If you must test, do so within 2 hours of waking and inform us in the supporting information. Avoid nipple stimulation or heavy meals before taking the test, as these can increase prolactin levels. Take this test when any symptoms of short-term illness have settled. Take this test two to five days after the start of your period, ideally on day three. It can be taken any time if you do not have periods. Avoid fatty foods for eight hours before your test, you do not need to fast. Stay well hydrated before your test. Corticosteroid medication can affect this test, ask your doctor whether to stop before testing. Take your sample at least 24 hours after any vitamin or mineral supplements. Do not take biotin supplements for two days before this test, discuss this with your doctor if it is prescribed. Do not take vitamin B12 for two weeks prior to this test. If your B12 is prescribed ask your doctor whether to stop. Hormonal contraception can affect the results of this test. Taking a break from this and waiting for your periods to restart before your blood test will give more accurate results. If you take levothyroxine or desiccated thyroid extract (DTE), take your blood test before your dose for the most accurate thyroid function results. If you have to take your blood test later in the day, aim to leave at least six hours between taking levothyroxine medication and your blood draw (or 12 hours after DTE/T3 medication). Please also let us know in the supporting information if you take amiodarone or lithium, as these can also affect your results.
