Understanding Your Bleeding Risk: CD36 Gene Deficiency Testing
When you notice unexplained bruising, prolonged bleeding from minor cuts, or have concerns about your platelet function, it’s natural to feel anxious. Many South Africans live with undiagnosed platelet disorders that can impact their daily lives and long-term health. Our CD36 Gene Platelet Glycoprotein IV Deficiency NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity and peace of mind you deserve.
This advanced genetic test helps identify mutations in the CD36 gene that can lead to serious bleeding disorders and cardiovascular complications. By understanding your genetic makeup, you can take proactive steps to manage your health and reduce risks.
What Does This Test Detect?
The CD36 gene plays a crucial role in platelet function and fat metabolism. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to platelet glycoprotein IV deficiency, causing:
- Increased bleeding risk and difficulty with blood clotting
- Cardiovascular complications due to impaired fat metabolism
- Potential transfusion complications if undiagnosed
- Increased risk during surgical procedures
Our NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) technology provides the most comprehensive analysis available, detecting even rare mutations that traditional tests might miss.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained or excessive bruising
- Prolonged bleeding from minor injuries
- Frequent nosebleeds that are difficult to stop
- Heavy menstrual bleeding in women
- Family history of bleeding disorders or platelet abnormalities
- Previous abnormal bleeding during dental procedures or surgery
- Concerns about cardiovascular health with family history
Many patients in Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban have found life-changing answers through this comprehensive genetic analysis.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Identifying CD36 gene deficiency early can significantly improve your quality of life and health outcomes:
- Prevent Bleeding Complications: Know your risks before surgeries or dental procedures
- Personalised Treatment Plans: Work with your hematologist to create targeted care strategies
- Family Planning Insights: Understand inheritance patterns for future generations
- Cardiovascular Risk Management: Address associated metabolic concerns proactively
