Find Clarity About Neurofibromatosis Type 1 – Take Control of Your Genetic Health
Living with uncertainty about NF1 can be overwhelming. Those café-au-lait spots, the worry about family history, the questions about what the future holds – we understand how heavy this burden feels. Our NF1 Gene Neurofibromatosis Type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the answers you need to make informed decisions about your health and your family’s future.
Understanding Your NF1 Genetic Test
This advanced genetic test examines the NF1 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, the gold standard in genetic analysis. The NF1 gene produces a protein called neurofibromin that helps regulate cell growth. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to Neurofibromatosis Type 1, a condition that affects skin, nervous system, and bone development.
Our test doesn’t just give you a yes or no answer – it provides comprehensive information about specific genetic variations, helping you and your healthcare provider understand your unique situation.
Who Should Consider This NF1 Genetic Test?
- Individuals with multiple café-au-lait spots (light brown skin patches)
- People developing neurofibromas (benign tumors on or under the skin)
- Those with freckling in the armpits or groin area
- Individuals with Lisch nodules (tiny bumps on the iris of the eye)
- People with a family history of Neurofibromatosis Type 1
- Parents concerned about passing NF1 to their children
- Individuals experiencing bone abnormalities or learning difficulties potentially linked to NF1
If you’re noticing any of these signs or have that nagging worry about family patterns, this test can provide the clarity you deserve.
