Find Clarity About Tyrosinemia Type 1 Genetic Risks
When metabolic disorders run in your family, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. Our FAH Gene Tyrosinemia Type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to protect your family’s health. For South African families concerned about inherited metabolic conditions, this advanced genetic screening offers peace of mind and proactive health management.
Understanding Your FAH Gene Tyrosinemia Type 1 Test
Tyrosinemia Type 1 is a rare inherited metabolic disorder caused by mutations in the FAH gene. This condition affects how your body processes the amino acid tyrosine, which can lead to serious liver and kidney problems if left undetected. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your FAH gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could indicate Tyrosinemia Type 1 risk.
The test is completely safe and requires only a simple blood sample or a single drop of blood on an FTA card. Our genetic counselling session helps map your family’s health history, creating a clear picture of inheritance patterns and individual risk factors.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your child experience:
- Unexplained liver problems or failure in infancy
- Family history of metabolic disorders
- Failure to thrive in early childhood
- Renal tubular dysfunction symptoms
- Neurological crises or developmental delays
- Consanguineous family relationships
Early detection through genetic testing can completely transform health outcomes, allowing for timely dietary management and medical intervention.
