What is a AMPHETAMINE URINE?

The Amphetamine Urine and Androstenedione Hormone tests are two distinct diagnostic evaluations often ordered together to assess different aspects of health. The Amphetamine urine test detects the presence of amphetamines or related substances, helping doctors monitor drug use, confirm compliance with treatment, or investigate unexplained symptoms. The Androstenedione hormone test measures levels of a steroid hormone produced by adrenal glands and gonads, used to evaluate hormonal imbalances, infertility, or conditions like PCOS and adrenal disorders. Together, they provide valuable insights into metabolic, hormonal, and substance-related health concerns.
