IGFBP-3 Test
IGFBP-3 Blood Test in Pune
At a glance: The IGFBP-3 test helps assess growth hormone activity and related growth disorders.
The IGFBP-3 test measures Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3, a protein that regulates the availability of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in the bloodstream. Growth hormone activity refers to the hormonal regulation of growth, metabolism, and tissue repair. IGFBP-3 levels provide stable insight into growth hormone secretion, especially when IGF-1 levels alone are inconclusive.
