    What Is the 17- Hydroxy Progesterone Test?

    The 17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) test measures the level of 17-hydroxyprogesterone, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, which are situated above the kidneys. The body uses enzymes to convert 17-OHP into cortisol, which plays an important role in regulating energy, blood sugar, blood pressure, and the body’s response to stress or illness.

    In individuals with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), a genetic disorder, there is a problem in producing enough cortisol, as they lack the 21-hydroxylase enzyme required to convert 17-OHP into cortisol. As a result, the body produces an excess of 17-OHP and higher levels of male hormones. CAH symptoms can vary depending on age and gender and may include early puberty, excess facial or body hair, a deep voice, or infertility.

    The 17-OHP test is commonly used to:

    • Detect severe forms of CAH in newborns.

    • Diagnose milder cases of CAH in children, adolescents, and adults.

    • Monitor the effectiveness of CAH treatment.

    • Help rule out CAH in women with irregular menstrual cycles or excessive facial hair.

    If you're in Gurgaon and experiencing symptoms such as early puberty, excessive body hair, or irregular periods, it may be worth booking a 17-Hydroxyprogesterone test to assess your adrenal glands and uncover potential underlying issues.

    17- Hydroxy Progesterone Test Parameters

    The 17 Hydroxyprogesterone test measures the amount of 17-hydroxyprogesterone hormone present in the blood.
