Answer
Hello,
To the question "What is the normal Pepinogen index in the stomach", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
The pepsinogen index is one of the indicators suggesting stomach cancer. stomach and precancerous stomach. However, this index is directional when the Pepinogen I/II index <3; sometimes in chronic gastritis such as atrophic gastritis, active chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer, this index also changes.
With the epinogen P index in the stomach as you describe, you should go for a gastroscopy to evaluate the pathology of the stomach. Through endoscopy, the doctor will take samples from the stomach, do pathological tests to make a diagnosis.
If you still have questions about Pepinogen index in the stomach, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
