PAPP-A Test: Cost, Symptoms, Diagnosis – DNA Labs India
If you are pregnant, you may have heard of the PAPP-A test. This test is used to measure the level of Pregnancy Associated Plasma Protein-A (PAPP-A) in a woman’s blood. PAPP-A is a protein that is produced by the placenta during pregnancy and can be used to help diagnose certain conditions. In this blog, we will discuss the cost, symptoms, and diagnosis of the PAPP-A test.
Cost of PAPP-A Test
The cost of the PAPP-A test can vary depending on where you go to get tested. At DNA Labs India, the cost of the PAPP-A test is INR 1053. This test is covered by most insurance plans, but it is always best to check with your insurance provider to see if it is covered.
Symptoms of Low PAPP-A Levels
Low levels of PAPP-A can indicate a higher risk for certain conditions, including:
- Down syndrome
- Preeclampsia
- Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR)
It is important to note that having low levels of PAPP-A does not necessarily mean that you will develop these conditions, but it does increase the risk.
Diagnosis of PAPP-A Levels
The PAPP-A test is a simple blood test that can be done during the first trimester of pregnancy. The blood sample is taken from the mother’s arm and sent to a lab for analysis. The results of the test will show the level of PAPP-A in the mother’s blood.
If the level of PAPP-A is low, your doctor may recommend additional testing to check for any of the conditions mentioned above. This may include an ultrasound or other diagnostic tests.

Pregnancy Associated Plasma Proteinƒ??A (PAPP-A ) is secreted by placenta and levels elevate with gestational age. It is also expressed by a variety of tissues, but at much lower levels. Unstable or ruptured coronary artery plaques, but not stable plaques also express PAPP-A. This test is used for First Trimester Prenatal Screening.
