What does the CAH Panel measure?

The CAH Panel measures the levels of hormones such as Androstenedione, 17 OH Progesterone, Total Testosterone, Cortisol, and Aldosterone.

Why is CAH Panel done?

• To diagnose or confirm the diagnosis of CAH • To monitor treatment effectiveness in people already diagnosed with CAH • To screen newborns for CAH • To detect hormonal imbalances or problems with the adrenal gland • To evaluate symptoms like excess hair growth, irregular periods, or infertility • To detect hormonal imbalances in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)

When is the CAH Panel recommended and who should take the test?

Your doctor might recommend this test if • you show symptoms of CAH such as abnormal genitalia, early development of pubic hair or acne, • you have a family history of CAH, • you have other symptoms related to abnormal hormone levels such as irregular periods or excessive hair growth, or • you are experiencing fertility problems.

What if the results of the CAH Panel are abnormal?

Abnormal results may indicate problems with hormone production and adrenal gland function, which possibly means the presence of CAH or other hormonal disorders.

What to expect during the CAH Panel?

A lab technician will take a blood sample from your vein using a needle. They will store the sample in a sterile container and send it to a laboratory for testing.

What preparations are required before the CAH Panel test?

• Your doctor may ask you to stop taking certain medications that can interfere with this test's results. • You should fast for at least eight hours before the test, although you may drink water. • Your doctor may instruct you to avoid strenuous exercise and stress before the test as they can affect hormone levels. • Inform your doctor if you have any specific requirements.

What other tests may be ordered with the CAH Panel?

• CRH Stimulation Test: This blood test measures cortisol levels after receiving an injection of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) to diagnose adrenal gland problems. • Dexamethasone Suppression Test: This blood test measures cortisol levels after receiving a low dose of dexamethasone to diagnose Cushing's Syndrome or other adrenal gland problems.
