Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)
Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP)
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is normally elevated in pregnant women since it is produced by the fetus. However, AFP is not usually found in the blood of adults. In men, and in women who are not pregnant, an elevated level of AFP may indicate liver cancer or cancer of the ovary or testicle. Noncancerous conditions may also cause elevated AFP levels.
