|---|---|---|---|---|
| ACTH (pg/mL) | 46.9 | 18.3 | 18.5 | 16.6 |
| Cortisol (μg/dL) | 4.4 | 1.5 | 1.7 | 1.6 |
| CRH/TRH/LHRH stimulation test | 0 min | 30 min | 60 min | 120 min |
| ACTH (pg/mL) | 46.9 | 69.5 | 58.4 | 32.5 |
| Cortisol (μg/dL) | 4.4 | 8.5 | 9.4 | 5.1 |
| TSH (μIU/mL) | 0.32 | 2.20 | 2.27 | 1.46 |
