What is a 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone Test in Delhi ?
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. If you have these symptoms, GetVisit offers booking and home collection across Uttam Nagar, Paschim Vihar, and other parts of Delhi.
How is 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone performed?
A quick venous blood sample is all that is needed. At your chosen slot in Uttam Nagar or Paschim Vihar, Delhi, the phlebotomist collects the sample with sterile equipment; most people feel only a momentary prick and there is no downtime afterwards.
How accurate is 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone?
Every GetVisit sample from Uttam Nagar, Paschim Vihar, and across Delhi is processed at NABL-accredited labs that use internationally calibrated reference standards, pass external quality assessments, and maintain internal quality control at every shift. Reports are accepted by all major hospital networks, specialists, and insurance providers in India.
Are there any risks to 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone?
This is a low-risk procedure whether done at a lab in Uttam Nagar or by home collection in Paschim Vihar, Delhi. The only intervention is the blood draw. Side effects are limited to a brief pinch and an occasional small bruise that resolves in 24 to 48 hours. Patients on anticoagulants should hold light pressure for 3 to 5 minutes after the draw.
Did you know?
Elevated 17‑hydroxyprogesterone suggests impaired cortisol synthesis, most commonly 21‑hydroxylase congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone Test Preparation in Delhi
Fasting instructions:

17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone Test Parameters in Delhi
Single standalone test:
17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone. Can be ordered individually or as part of a preventive health package on GetVisit.
Why Take a 17 - Alpha- Hydroxy Progesterone Test in Delhi ?
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 Delhi?
Delhi's Yamuna river is among India's most polluted urban waterways, contributing to seasonal hepatitis A and E outbreaks during monsoon flooding, particularly in areas with older water infrastructure including Shahdara, Dilshad Garden, Preet Vihar, and parts of Dwarka. Delhi also has among India's highest per-capita alcohol consumption rates, driving significant alcoholic and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease burden across all socioeconomic groups. NAFLD affects an estimated 25 to 35% of India's urban adults , the majority unaware. Regular liver testing in Delhi's residential areas including Paschim Vihar and Shahdara enables lifestyle intervention before irreversible scarring occurs. Patients recovering from hepatitis, those in alcohol recovery, and anyone with persistently unexplained fatigue also benefit from regular liver monitoring.
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?
ALT above 56 U/L or AST above 40 U/L signals hepatocyte stress. The pattern matters: ALT greater than AST typically suggests NAFLD or viral hepatitis. An AST:ALT ratio above 2 points to alcoholic hepatitis. High ALP with normal transaminases suggests bile duct disease rather than liver cell damage. Low albumin alongside high bilirubin indicates serious loss of liver function.
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?
Reports arrive digitally and remain in your GetVisit history, so repeat tests can be tracked over months and years. Review anything unexpected with your doctor before changing medication or lifestyle, and use the app to book a follow-up if needed.
