The Alpha Fetoprotein Test is a blood test mainly used to measure the level of alpha-fetoprotein in a pregnant female’s bloodstream. Performed between 15 and 20 weeks of pregnancy, the AFP Test helps determine the fetus' risk for having certain genetic problems and birth defects. In males and non-pregnant females, the AFP levels can also help diagnose certain types of cancer, and this test is known as the AFP tumor marker test. At Max Lab, one can book an AFP test at a reasonable price and have the sample collected quickly from their doorstep.

Overview of the AFP Test

As the name suggests, the AFP Test is a simple blood test performed to measure the levels of alpha-fetoprotein in a pregnant woman’s body. This protein is produced in limited amounts by the liver of a developing fetus. However, in some cases, the unborn baby's body releases more or less AFP, which is caused by some specific medical condition. The AFP, which is being produced by the fetus, also gets transferred to the mother's blood in a certain amount.

By performing an AFP blood Test, doctors can determine the baby’s risk of developing those medical conditions. If a pregnant female’s AFP test report indicates levels higher/lower than normal, it indicates that the baby has a high risk of being born with a genetic disorder, such as neural tube defect, down syndrome, etc. In males and non-pregnant females, the levels of alpha fetoprotein are measured as a tumor marker. They help in diagnosing certain types of cancer and a few other serious conditions.

The Alpha Fetoprotein Test is a blood test mainly used to measure the level of alpha-fetoprotein in a pregnant female’s bloodstream.

When is the AFP Test Prescribed?

For every pregnant female, the serum AFP Test is suggested as part of prenatal care. It is usually performed between the 15th and 20th weeks of pregnancy. The doctor may especially recommend this test to a female in certain conditions, such as:

There is a family history of birth defects.
The pregnant female is 35 years or older.
She has a medical condition like diabetes.
She has used certain medicines or drugs during pregnancy that could harm the baby.

However, the AFP Test is also used to screen for cancer and several other liver-related conditions. For people who have already been diagnosed with any such medical condition, the AFP test is performed to check the effectiveness of the ongoing treatment.
