M1http://caresfoundation.org/monitoringCAH.html you can find this information at the cares foundation. Most of us at some point in our CAH lives have had to deal with doctors trying to get us into the "normal" range. Even the specialists! Been there and done that with my doctors AND my daughter’s. Right now my daughter goes to a well know children’s hospital where it is the protocol to keep 17 ohp within range, luckily this doctor is at least willing to learn, and doesn’t push the normal range very hard.
Anyway here is a little info, maybe if you google the CAH Consensus Statement you can actually get a look at the original document. I used to have it, but now I don’t know where it is.
It is possible to achieve normal levels of these hormones in children with CAH. Yet, treating CAH to "normalize" all hormone levels, especially 17 OHP levels, can result in growth suppression and weight gain. Thus, many clinicians aim for androstenedione and testosterone levels that are normal or modestly (about 25%) above normal. Because 17 OHP levels can fluctuate widely and be elevated when there is adequate treatment, some clinicians will accept mid-day 17 OHP levels of 500-1000 ng/dl; others will aim for lower levels.
Morning levels of 17 OHP, androstenedione, and testosterone are much higher than mid-day levels, especially when there is undertreatment. This occurrence reflects the general observation that adrenal glands becoming more active in the early morning hours and at a time when the medication from the day before is wearing off. It can therefore be very useful to obtain morning hormone levels.
