What is a 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone Test in Mumbai ?
What is 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone?
The 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone test measures a hormone precursor made mainly by the adrenal glands and ovaries. It plays a key role in making cortisol and sex hormones. It is one of the most commonly ordered blood tests worldwide and plays a key role in both preventive screening and the investigation of liver disease.
What does 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone measure?
Measuring it can reveal problems in steroid production. High levels often point to congenital adrenal hyperplasia or hormone-producing tumors. Doctors also use it when a child has early puberty or an adult has unexplained hair growth, irregular periods, or infertility. The test helps confirm a diagnosis and guides treatment decisions.
What symptoms suggest 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone may be needed?
A doctor may recommend 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone when a patient reports fatigue or persistent low energy, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark amber or tea-coloured urine, pale or clay-coloured stools, upper right abdominal discomfort, nausea, loss of appetite, abdominal swelling, and unexplained weight loss. Sample collection for Mumbai is available at labs and at home across Borivali, Bandra, and surrounding neighbourhoods.
How is 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone performed?
For 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone, a GetVisit phlebotomist in Borivali or Bandra, Mumbai applies a soft tourniquet, disinfects the site, and collects a small blood sample into a vacuum tube. The visit takes only a few minutes and you can return to your day straight away.
How accurate is 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone?
Results are analytically reliable because GetVisit's Mumbai logistics network maintains proper cold-chain transport from your Borivali or Bandra collection point to the processing lab, preserving sample integrity. NABL independently audits quality control at regular intervals.
Are there any risks to 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone?
Risks are minimal. Some people notice a small bruise or brief soreness at the needle site, which settles within a day or two. Serious problems such as infection are very rare when sterile, single-use equipment is used, as it is at every GetVisit collection in Borivali and Bandra, Mumbai.
Did you know?
Elevated 17‑hydroxyprogesterone suggests impaired cortisol synthesis, most commonly 21‑hydroxylase congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

Why Take a 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone Test in Mumbai ?
When does a doctor order 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone?
17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone is often included in adrenal steroid panels and newborn CAH screening. Doctors order it for babies with ambiguous genitalia, children with early puberty, or adults with irregular periods, excess hair, or infertility.
Who should get 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone done in Mumbai?
Mumbai has among India's highest documented rates of alcohol consumption, contributing to a significant alcoholic liver disease burden across all socioeconomic groups. NAFLD is rising rapidly among the city's large corporate workforce in Lower Parel, Bandra-Kurla Complex, Worli, Powai, and Andheri West , driven by sedentary work, irregular eating patterns from long commutes, and high-calorie dining. Hepatitis B prevalence in Maharashtra is estimated at around 3 to 4%. Regular liver testing benefits: regular alcohol drinkers, individuals with BMI above 28, anyone on long-term medication including statins or anti-TB drugs, people with a personal or family history of hepatitis B or C, those with type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome, and all adults above 40 in annual preventive panels. In Mumbai, residents of Juhu, Ghatkopar, and similar areas with sedentary lifestyles and calorie-dense diets face particularly elevated metabolic liver risk.
What conditions can 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone help diagnose?
It helps diagnose enzyme defects, adrenal or ovarian tumors, and monitor treatment. Abnormal results can come from genetic enzyme deficiencies, stress, pregnancy, or some medications, and family history of CAH raises testing importance.
What do 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone results mean?
Mildly elevated ALT or AST (2–3× normal): fatty liver, obesity, or medication effect , often reversible. Moderately elevated (3–10×): active viral hepatitis or drug toxicity , requires urgent investigation. Severely elevated (>10×): acute liver injury , a medical emergency. High bilirubin: liver processing failure, bile duct obstruction, or haemolysis. Low albumin: significant loss of liver synthetic function, seen in advanced cirrhosis or malnutrition.
How often should 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone be repeated?
Adults with no liver risk factors and a previously normal result: annually. Patients with NAFLD or treated hepatitis: every 6 months. Patients on hepatotoxic medication: baseline before starting, then at 1 month, 3 months, and every 6 months during treatment. Patients with active liver disease: at intervals specified by their gastroenterologist.
What happens after 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone results are ready?
Results are delivered to your phone and stored securely on GetVisit. Any value the laboratory flags as critical is escalated for urgent review, and for everything else your doctor or a verified specialist can guide the next step at your convenience.
