Understanding Your Genetic Risk for Liver Disease
When liver problems run in your family, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. You worry about your children’s health, question every symptom, and wonder if there’s a way to get ahead of potential health issues. Our ABCB11 Gene Test for Progressive Intrahepatic Cholestasis Type 2 provides the clarity and peace of mind you’ve been searching for.
We understand that genetic testing can feel intimidating, which is why we’ve created a supportive, compassionate testing experience that puts your concerns first. With our advanced genetic analysis, you can finally get definitive answers about your family’s liver health.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The ABCB11 gene test examines your genetic blueprint to identify mutations that affect bile flow in your liver. When this gene doesn’t function properly, it can lead to Progressive Intrahepatic Cholestasis Type 2 – a condition where bile builds up in the liver, causing damage over time.
Using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we analyse your DNA with exceptional accuracy to detect even the smallest genetic variations. This isn’t just a simple blood test – it’s a comprehensive genetic investigation that provides life-changing information about your liver health.
Is This Test Right for You or Your Family?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes)
- Persistent itching without clear cause
- Family history of liver disease in childhood
- Elevated liver enzymes in blood tests
- Poor growth or development in children
- Dark urine or pale stools
If liver problems have affected multiple generations in your family, this test can provide the answers you need to break the cycle of uncertainty.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family’s Future
Knowing your genetic status empowers you to take control of your health journey. Early detection of Progressive Intrahepatic Cholestasis Type 2 allows for:
- Timely medical interventions that can prevent liver damage
- Informed family planning decisions
- Proper monitoring and management strategies
- Reduced anxiety through definitive answers
- Access to specialised care when needed
Many families find that genetic testing brings tremendous relief – either by confirming their suspicions and enabling proactive care, or by ruling out concerns and providing peace of mind.

We know that waiting for genetic test results can be stressful. That’s why we include comprehensive genetic counselling as part of your testing journey. Our qualified genetic counsellors will:
- Help you understand what your results mean for your health
