The Serotonin (5-HT) Test is a specialized blood test used to measure the level of serotonin, also known as 5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), in the body.
Serotonin is an important chemical messenger (neurotransmitter) that plays a major role in regulating:
- Mood and emotional well-being
- Sleep patterns
- Appetite and digestion
- Nervous system function
- Blood vessel activity
This test is most commonly used to help diagnose and monitor certain rare tumors such as carcinoid tumors, which can produce excess serotonin.
At Modern Pathology, we provide accurate serotonin testing with expert reporting and reliable diagnostic support.
