Protect Your Baby’s Future with Beta Thalassemia Screening
As an expectant parent in South Africa, the health and wellbeing of your unborn child is your top priority. Beta Thalassemia is a serious genetic blood disorder that can affect your baby’s quality of life, but early detection through our prenatal screening gives you the power to prepare and protect. At Oracle Genomics, we understand the anxiety that comes with pregnancy, which is why we’ve made this crucial screening accessible and affordable across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and Pretoria.
Understanding Beta Thalassemia Screening
Beta Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder that affects the body’s ability to produce haemoglobin properly. Our prenatal screening uses advanced End Point PCR technology to detect genetic mutations that could lead to this condition in your baby. The test analyses amniotic fluid, chorionic villi, or cord blood samples to provide accurate results you can trust.
This isn’t just a test – it’s an opportunity to understand your baby’s genetic health and make informed decisions about their future care and treatment options.
Who Should Consider This Screening?
This test is particularly important for:
- Parents with family history of blood disorders or anaemia
- Couples from ethnic backgrounds with higher thalassemia prevalence
- Expectant mothers experiencing unusual fatigue or anaemia symptoms
- Families planning for comprehensive prenatal care
- Parents wanting complete peace of mind about their baby’s health
Remember, a doctor’s prescription is required for this screening, though exceptions apply for pregnancy cases.
