NBS - 17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP)

NBS - 17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), in Bangalore
Measures 17-hydroxyprogesterone, a steroid precursor; screens for congenital adrenal hyperplasia and hormone imbalances in newborns.
What is a NBS - 17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) Test in Bangalore ?
This test measures the hormone precursor called 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP). The adrenal glands make 17-OHP as a step toward producing cortisol and sex hormones. It is important because a buildup of 17-OHP can signal an enzyme defect that prevents normal hormone production. The test is widely used in newborn screening to detect congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). CAH can cause salt loss, dehydration, abnormal genital development, or early puberty. Doctors use 17-OHP to identify affected babies quickly, confirm the diagnosis with further tests, start cortisol or salt-replacement treatment if needed, and monitor hormone levels during follow‑up. Results can be altered by prematurity, stress, illness, or steroid medications, so repeat testing may be required.

Why Take a NBS - 17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) Test in Bangalore ?
NBS - 17-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) is commonly included in newborn screening panels. Doctors order it when a baby shows poor feeding, vomiting, dehydration, or ambiguous genitalia, or when there is a family history of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. It helps diagnose and monitor CAH and guides hormone replacement therapy. Abnormal results may be due to enzyme defects, stress, prematurity, illness, or steroid use and need confirmation.
