    What Is the 17- Hydroxy Progesterone Test?

    The 17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) test measures the level of the hormone 17-hydroxyprogesterone, which is produced by the adrenal glands located above your kidneys. The body converts 17-OHP into cortisol with the help of certain enzymes. Cortisol plays a key role in regulating energy, blood sugar, blood pressure, and the body’s response to stress, illness, or injury.

    People with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), a genetic disorder, have difficulty producing sufficient cortisol because they lack an enzyme (21-hydroxylase) needed to convert 17-OHP into cortisol. As a result, the body produces excessive 17-OHP and higher levels of male hormones. CAH symptoms vary depending on age and gender and can include early puberty, excessive body or facial hair, a deep voice, and infertility.

    The 17-OHP test is often used to:

    • Detect severe cases of CAH in newborns.

    • Diagnose milder forms of CAH in children, teenagers, and adults.

    • Monitor the effectiveness of CAH treatment.

    • Help rule out CAH in women with irregular periods or symptoms such as excessive facial hair.

    If you are in Hyderabad and experiencing symptoms like early puberty, excessive body hair, or irregular periods, booking a 17-Hydroxyprogesterone test could help assess adrenal gland function and uncover any underlying conditions.
