Urine aldosterone

The main product after aldosterone degradation is tetrahydroaldosterone, which is excreted from the urine. The secretion of aldosterone has a night-to-night secretion rhythm similar to cortisol, which is high in the morning and low in the night, and is also regulated by the renin-angiotensin system and blood dielectric. Aldosterone is an important hormone that maintains the body's moisture and electrolyte balance.
