What is a Androstenedione (A4) Test in Mumbai ?
What is Androstenedione (A4)?
The Androstenedione (A4) test measures the level of a male-type hormone called androstenedione. This hormone is made mainly by the adrenal glands and the ovaries or testes. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does Androstenedione (A4) measure?
It helps the body produce other sex hormones like testosterone and estrogen. Measuring A4 can show if hormone levels are too high or too low. Doctors use it to help diagnose conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), congenital adrenal hyperplasia, adrenal or ovarian tumors, and causes of early or late puberty. It also helps evaluate unexplained hair growth, deepening voice, or irregular periods.
What symptoms suggest Androstenedione (A4) may be needed?
A doctor may recommend Androstenedione (A4) when a patient reports irregular or absent menstrual periods, unexplained abdominal weight gain, excessive facial or body hair (hirsutism), acne unresponsive to treatment, mood changes, low libido, and difficulty conceiving. GetVisit makes testing convenient in Mumbai, with lab slots and home collection in Dadar, Malad, and nearby areas.
How is Androstenedione (A4) performed?
At a GetVisit-partnered lab in Dadar or Malad, Mumbai, a certified phlebotomist cleans the inner elbow, locates a vein, and draws the required blood (typically 5 to 10 mL). The procedure takes 3 to 5 minutes. You feel a brief pinch at insertion and mild pressure during collection, then can eat, drive, and resume all activities immediately afterwards.
How accurate is Androstenedione (A4)?
Every GetVisit sample from Dadar, Malad, and across Mumbai 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 Androstenedione (A4)?
This is a low-risk procedure whether done at a lab in Dadar or by home collection in Malad, Mumbai. 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?
Yes , androstenedione is commonly abbreviated A4 (also called 4-androstenedione or androst-4-ene-3,17-dione).
Androstenedione (A4) Test Preparation in Mumbai
Fasting instructions:
Fasting is not necessary for this test. Drinking water freely beforehand actually makes sample collection easier.
Managing medication:
For reproductive hormones (LH, FSH, oestradiol), collect on day 2 to 5 of your cycle unless told otherwise, and mention any hormonal contraceptive, which affects these values.
What to bring along:
Keep your prescription and ID handy, along with your OPD insurance details if applicable. Wear sleeves that roll up easily.
Timing:
Morning appointments suit most tests, when the body's markers are most stable. GetVisit home collection in Mumbai starts at 6:00 AM, including Vashi and Malad.

Why Take a Androstenedione (A4) Test in Mumbai ?
When does a doctor order Androstenedione (A4)?
Androstenedione (A4) is often included in androgen or adrenal panels when doctors investigate excess hair, acne, irregular menstrual cycles, virilization, or abnormal puberty timing. It helps diagnose PCOS, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, or adrenal/ovarian tumors and monitor treatment.
Who should get Androstenedione (A4) done in Mumbai?
PCOS is increasingly diagnosed among Mumbai's young professional and corporate women. Hormone testing benefits women with irregular cycles, suspected PCOS, or fertility concerns, and men with low energy, low libido, or reduced muscle mass. In Mumbai, high occupational stress and irregular sleep among professionals in Mulund, Belapur, and similar areas are recognised contributors to hormonal imbalance.
What conditions can Androstenedione (A4) help diagnose?
Abnormal levels can result from obesity and insulin resistance, endocrine diseases, or certain medications and hormone therapies. A family history of endocrine disorders or early puberty may make testing important.
What do Androstenedione (A4) results mean?
Higher or positive results: Yes , androstenedione is often elevated in PCOS. Your doctor reads the value against the reference range on your report and your symptoms, and may repeat a borderline result to confirm it.
How often should Androstenedione (A4) be repeated?
Frequency depends on the clinical question. For a fertility or PCOS work-up, tests are often timed to specific cycle days and repeated over one or two cycles. For patients on hormone therapy, monitoring follows the specialist's schedule, typically every few months until stable.
What happens after Androstenedione (A4) results are ready?
You will be notified the moment results are ready, usually the same day for routine tests. Open the report in the GetVisit app to see each value beside its reference range, share it with your doctor in a tap, or book a specialist consultation to talk it through.
