If I am taking a potassium-sparing diuretic, can I still do Vibrant's Saliva Hormone panel?

Potassium-sparing diuretics may alter estrogen and cortisol levels. The evidence for increased cortisol is conflicting. Some studies suggest a significant increase, some studies suggest modest increase, and some studies suggest no increase. Ordering providers should interpret results in conjunction with clinical history, symptomatology, and other findings.
