ACTH is made in the pituitary gland in response to the release of another hormone, called corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), by the hypothalamus. In turn, the adrenal glands then make a hormone called cortisol, which helps your body manage stress. Cortisol is needed for life, so its levels in the blood are closely controlled. When cortisol levels rise, ACTH levels normally fall. When cortisol levels fall, ACTH levels normally rise.
ACTH Stimulation Test. Your pituitary gland, a pea-sized gland located at the base of your brain, produces many types of hormones, including the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). ACTH stimulates the adrenal glands, which sit atop the kidneys, to release two hormones, cortisol and adrenaline, also known as epinephrine.hen there is a stressful situation, this hormone along with another hormone, norepinephrine, is responsible for the protective fight-or-flight response. If a doctor suspects that your adrenal glands might not be functioning properly, he or she may perform an ACTH (cosyntropin) stimulation test.
