17-Hydroxyprogesterone in premature infants as a marker of intrauterine stress [PDF]
AIMS: Amniotic infection (AI) and preeclampsia (PE), which are commonly the reason for prematurity, inflict stress of different duration on immature fetuses. Whether chronic stress, as reflected by intrauterine growth retardation, influences the level of 17-OH progesterone (17-OHP), was not previously examined.

Interferences with Determination of 17-Hydroxyprogesterone in Amniotic Fluid
Abstract Continuing our work on the problems of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) (1, 2), we have established reference values for 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) and androstenedione (Δ4) in amniotic fluid(AF) and done 12 successful prenatal diagnoses in families at risk for CAH (3).
