What is a normal 17-OH-Progesterone for a CAH child?
Mar. 22nd, 2005   2:08pm

Am hoping for some quick answers before the doctor calls--

My girls had labs done a couple of weeks ago and I called the nurse earlier to see what the results were (because I am an anxious mom). Anyway, Carly’s 17-oHP was 77 and Kennedy’s was 181. The nurse said that Carly was in the normal range while Kennedy was high. However, don’t we want our CAH kids to be a little above normal??

I know I have seen this discussion before and I am going to search the archives for it, but maybe someone can help me. I am concerned that Carly is oversuppressed and wouldn’t this lab value support that?

I told the nurse that I would like to speak with the doctor about this so he should be calling.

Thanks

Cassy
