Peace of Mind for Your Child’s Genetic Health Journey
As a parent, nothing matters more than your child’s health and wellbeing. When concerns about genetic conditions arise, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our Maternal UPD Chromosome 14 Gene Temple Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity and answers South African families need to make informed decisions about their child’s healthcare journey.
At Oracle Genomics, we understand the emotional weight of genetic testing. That’s why we’ve created a compassionate, supportive environment where you can feel confident and cared for throughout the entire process.
Understanding Temple Syndrome Genetic Testing
Temple Syndrome is a rare genetic condition caused by changes on chromosome 14 that can affect your child’s growth, development, and overall health. Our advanced NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) technology examines the specific genetic markers associated with this condition, providing you with accurate, reliable results.
Unlike basic genetic tests, our comprehensive approach ensures we detect even the most subtle genetic variations, giving you complete confidence in your results. The test specifically looks for maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) of chromosome 14, which occurs when a child inherits both copies of chromosome 14 from the mother instead of one from each parent.
Is This Test Right for Your Family?
This genetic test may be recommended if your child shows signs of:
- Unexplained growth delays or failure to thrive
- Developmental milestones being consistently missed
- Feeding difficulties in infancy
- Hypotonia (low muscle tone)
- Early onset puberty
- Behavioural challenges or learning difficulties
- Family history of genetic conditions
Many South African parents find reassurance in understanding whether these symptoms relate to Temple Syndrome, allowing for targeted interventions and support.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Child’s Future
Knowing whether your child has Temple Syndrome empowers you to:
- Access appropriate medical care and interventions early
- Connect with specialists who understand the condition
- Plan for educational and developmental support
- Make informed family planning decisions
- Reduce anxiety through clear understanding
- Join supportive communities of families facing similar challenges
Early detection can significantly improve quality of life and help your child reach their full potential.
