Understanding Your Family’s Genetic Health Journey
When you’re concerned about inherited conditions like split-hand/foot malformation and hearing loss in your family, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. Our DLX5 genetic test provides the clarity and answers you need to make informed decisions about your family’s health future. With expert genetic counselling and state-of-the-art NGS technology, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
What Does the DLX5 Genetic Test Detect?
The DLX5 gene plays a crucial role in the development of limbs and hearing structures during early growth. When mutations occur in this gene, they can lead to split-hand/foot malformation type 1 combined with sensorineural hearing loss. Our advanced Next Generation Sequencing technology examines your DNA to identify these specific genetic variations, providing definitive answers about your genetic makeup and potential risks.
This isn’t just a test – it’s a comprehensive health assessment that gives you the knowledge to plan for the future with confidence.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important for:
- Individuals with split-hand or split-foot malformations
- Those experiencing sensorineural hearing loss from childhood
- Families with a history of these conditions across generations
- Parents planning pregnancy who want to understand genetic risks
- Individuals with unexplained limb abnormalities or hearing issues
- Anyone with concerns about passing genetic conditions to children
If you’ve noticed these patterns in your family, genetic testing can provide the answers you need to make informed healthcare decisions.
