A member asked:
Im wanting to donate my plasma but i think my cortisol is too high from stress are there ways to lower it fast?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It does not matter: Cortisol varies with the time of day with high levels about 6-8am and low level around midnight. Normal variation is not going to affect plasma donation.
