Find Answers for Unexplained Bone Conditions with CLCN5 Gene Testing
When your child experiences persistent bone pain, delayed growth, or dental problems that doctors can’t explain, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. At Oracle Genomics, we understand the emotional toll of searching for answers about hereditary bone disorders. Our CLCN5 Gene Hypophosphatemic Rickets NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity you need to make informed decisions about your family’s health.
Understanding the CLCN5 Gene Test
The CLCN5 gene plays a crucial role in kidney function and phosphate regulation in your body. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets – a condition that affects bone development and causes phosphate to be improperly processed. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your DNA to identify any abnormalities in the CLCN5 gene, giving you definitive answers about this hereditary condition.
This isn’t just a simple blood test; it’s a comprehensive genetic analysis that provides lifelong insights into your family’s health patterns.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained bone pain or tenderness in children
- Delayed growth or short stature despite normal nutrition
- Dental abscesses or early tooth decay without obvious cause
- Bone deformities like bowed legs or knock knees
- Family history of rickets or bone disorders
- Previous abnormal blood tests showing low phosphate levels
If multiple family members across generations have shown similar symptoms, genetic testing becomes even more critical for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family’s Health
Identifying CLCN5 gene mutations early can transform your family’s health outcomes:
- Prevent Permanent Damage: Early treatment can prevent irreversible bone deformities in children
- Targeted Treatment: Accurate diagnosis leads to specific phosphate and vitamin D therapy
- Family Planning Insights: Understand inheritance patterns for future family decisions
- Peace of Mind: End the uncertainty and get definitive answers about your symptoms
- Cost Savings: Early intervention reduces long-term medical expenses and hospital visits

Transparent Pricing – Investing in Your Family’s Health
| Service | Regular Price | Special Price | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| CLCN5 Gene Hypophosphatemic Rickets NGS Test | ZAR 6,700 | ZAR 2,650 |
Your investment includes: Comprehensive genetic analysis, professional genetic counselling session, detailed results report, family pedigree chart, and ongoing specialist support.
Consider this: The cost of untreated rickets can include multiple specialist visits, dental procedures, and potential surgical corrections that far exceed the test price. Early detection is the most cost-effective approach to managing hereditary bone conditions.
