Progesterone Total and Free
Test ID:
704325
CPT code:
84144, 84999
Clinical Use:
Progesterone plays an important role in the secretory transformation of the endometrium, maintenance of gestation, and relaxation of the myometrium. Progesterone is also a marker for ovulation and luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Steroid hormones (like progesterone) circulate in the blood in protein-bound and free forms, and it is the free form that exhibits biological activity. The free form of progesterone is expected to reflect the biological activity of progesterone.
