17a Price in Bangladesh

What is 17a?

17α-Hydroxyprogesterone (17a-OH Progesterone) is a blood test used to measure the levels of 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands and ovaries. It is commonly used to diagnose and monitor conditions like Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH), a genetic disorder affecting adrenal hormone production, and to assess adrenal function.

Elevated levels of 17α-OH progesterone can indicate CAH or other adrenal disorders, while low levels may be seen in conditions like hypocortisolism. The test typically requires no special preparation, though the timing of the test may be important, depending on the condition being assessed.
