Peace of Mind for Your Pregnancy Journey
We understand the mix of excitement and concern that comes with pregnancy. The Placental Growth Factor (PlGF) Test is designed to give you confidence and early insight into your baby’s wellbeing, detecting potential complications before they become serious concerns.
Understanding Your PlGF Test
The Placental Growth Factor test measures a protein produced by your placenta that’s essential for healthy blood vessel development. When PlGF levels are low, it can indicate that your placenta isn’t functioning optimally, which may lead to conditions like pre-eclampsia. This simple blood test provides valuable information about your pregnancy health without any special preparation required.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you’re experiencing:
- High blood pressure readings during pregnancy
- Swelling in hands, feet, or face
- Protein in your urine
- Persistent headaches or vision changes
- Previous pregnancy complications
- Family history of pre-eclampsia
Even without symptoms, many healthcare providers recommend this test for comprehensive pregnancy monitoring.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Early identification of placental issues through PlGF testing allows for:
- Timely medical interventions to protect both mother and baby
- Reduced risk of premature birth
- Better management of blood pressure and other symptoms
- Peace of mind knowing you’re proactively monitoring your pregnancy
- Potential prevention of serious complications
