Understanding Hereditary Hearing Loss: Your Guide to ESRRB Gene Testing
If you’re worried about hearing loss running in your family, or if you’ve noticed early signs of hearing difficulties in your child, you’re not alone. Many South African families face the uncertainty of genetic hearing conditions. Our ESRRB Gene Deafness Test provides the clarity and answers you need to make informed decisions about your family’s health future.
What Does the ESRRB Gene Deafness Test Detect?
The ESRRB gene plays a crucial role in the development and function of the inner ear. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to autosomal recessive deafness type 35 – a form of hearing loss that typically appears in early childhood. Our advanced NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) technology examines your DNA to identify these specific genetic variations, giving you definitive answers about your genetic risk.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
- Parents concerned about hearing loss in their children
- Individuals with family history of early-onset hearing impairment
- Couples planning pregnancy who want to understand genetic risks
- Children showing signs of delayed speech development
- Individuals diagnosed with hearing loss seeking genetic causes
- Families with multiple members affected by hearing conditions
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family’s Health
Knowing your genetic status empowers you to take proactive steps. Early detection of ESRRB gene mutations allows for:
- Timely intervention and hearing support strategies

- Access to appropriate medical care and resources
- Reduced anxiety through clear understanding of risks
