Overview of 17-OH (Hydroxy) Progesterone Test
17-OH (Hydroxy) Progesterone is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands. It is the substrate that is further processed to make cortisol, a hormone which plays an integral role in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels, supporting metabolism, and reducing inflammation. A deficiency in cortisol production leads to a buildup of 17-OH (Hydroxy) Progesterone, which can be assessed by a blood test.

Why And When Is A 17-OH (Hydroxy) Progesterone Test Done?

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) is a medical condition resulting from an accumulation of 17-hydroxyprogesterone in the blood due to enzyme deficiency, leading to hormone imbalance. Abnormally high levels of 17-hydroxyprogesterone could also be indicative of adrenal tumours.
