Protect Your Baby’s Future with Prenatal Alpha Thalassemia Screening
As expectant parents in South Africa, you’re already making countless decisions to ensure your baby’s wellbeing. Our Prenatal Alpha Thalassemia Mutation Screening gives you the confidence and knowledge to protect your child from inherited blood disorders. This comprehensive screening detects three common genetic mutations that could impact your baby’s haemoglobin production – providing crucial information when it matters most.
Understanding Your Prenatal Alpha Thalassemia Screening
Alpha Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder that affects haemoglobin production, potentially causing anaemia and other health complications. Our screening specifically targets three of the most common Alpha Thalassemia mutations found in South African populations. Using advanced End Point PCR technology, we provide highly accurate results that help you and your healthcare provider make informed decisions about your pregnancy care.
The test requires a simple sample collection from peripheral blood, amniotic fluid, chorionic villi, or cord blood, making it safe and accessible for expectant mothers across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and Pretoria.
