Find Answers for Recurrent Infections with HAX1 Gene Neutropenia Testing
If you or your child experiences frequent, severe infections that don’t seem to resolve normally, you’re not alone. Many South African families face the uncertainty of unexplained immune system challenges. Our HAX1 Gene Neutropenia Severe Congenital Type 3 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity you need to understand your genetic health and take control of your wellbeing.
Understanding Your HAX1 Gene Neutropenia Test
This advanced genetic test examines the HAX1 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic analysis. The HAX1 gene plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy neutrophil levels, which are essential white blood cells that fight bacterial infections. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to severe congenital neutropenia type 3, a condition where the body cannot produce enough neutrophils to protect against infections.
Our test doesn’t just provide a yes/no answer – it gives you comprehensive information about your specific genetic makeup, helping healthcare providers create targeted treatment plans.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Recurrent bacterial infections since infancy or early childhood
- Unexplained fevers that occur frequently
- Skin abscesses or deep tissue infections
- Pneumonia, sinusitis, or ear infections that don’t respond normally to treatment
- Family history of immune disorders or early childhood infections
- Delayed wound healing or unusual infection patterns
Many South African patients find relief in finally understanding the genetic basis of their health challenges after years of uncertainty.
