CHROMIUM EXPOSURE (HAIR)

Medically Reviewed By: Quentin Caswell, FNP-C
Last Updated: June 30, 2023

A hair test can give an expanded window of detection of up to 90 days. Exposure to Chromium can have very serious consequences for your body, and you may not know right away if you have been exposed. If you live in an area where you might have been exposed to environmental Chromium, you may decide to choose this test. Children and pregnant women are especially vulnerable to Chromium.
