STEROID PANEL: 21-HYDROXYLASE DEFICIENCY Test cost INR:4000 symptoms diagnosis
Are you experiencing symptoms such as early puberty, irregular menstrual cycles, infertility, or high blood pressure? These symptoms may indicate a 21-hydroxylase deficiency, which affects the production of steroid hormones in the adrenal glands.
At DNA Labs India, we offer a Steroid Panel: 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency Test to diagnose this condition. This test costs INR 4000 and can provide valuable information about your hormone levels.
What is a 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency?
A 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency is a genetic condition that affects the adrenal glands’ ability to produce steroid hormones. This deficiency can lead to a variety of symptoms, including:
- Early puberty
- Irregular menstrual cycles
- Infertility
- High blood pressure
- Excessive hair growth
- Acne
- Weight gain
If left untreated, a 21-hydroxylase deficiency can lead to more severe symptoms, such as adrenal crisis, which can be life-threatening.
How is a 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency Diagnosed?
A 21-hydroxylase deficiency is diagnosed through a blood test that measures the levels of various steroid hormones in the body. This test is known as a Steroid Panel: 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency Test and is available at DNA Labs India for INR 4000.
If the test results show low levels of cortisol and high levels of androgens, it may indicate a 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Further testing may be required to confirm the diagnosis.
What are the Treatment Options for a 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency?
Treatment for a 21-hydroxylase deficiency typically involves hormone replacement therapy to replace the missing steroid hormones. This therapy can help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce excess hair growth, and improve fertility.
In more severe cases, surgery may be required to remove the affected adrenal gland.

Steroid 21- hydroxylase deficiency accounts for more than 90% of the cases of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH). The classical form of CAH presents in childhood with markedly raised 17- hydroxypregesterone (17-OHP). Neonates are screened for CAH by testing 17-OHP levels to reduce mortality and other serious sequelae. False positive results can occur due to physiological stress. Steroid profiling by LCMS/MS improves the positive predictive value of newborn screening for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH).
