Find Clarity About Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome Type 3
Living with unexplained symptoms like albinism, vision problems, or unusual bleeding can be confusing and worrying. Our HPS3 Gene Test provides the answers you deserve, helping you understand your genetic makeup and take control of your health journey with confidence.
Understanding Your HPS3 Genetic Test
The HPS3 gene test examines your DNA for mutations that cause Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type 3, a rare inherited condition affecting multiple body systems. Using advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we provide highly accurate results that help explain symptoms you may be experiencing.
This test specifically looks for changes in the HPS3 gene that disrupt normal cellular function, leading to the characteristic features of this syndrome including albinism, vision problems, and bleeding tendencies.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your child experience:
- Oculocutaneous albinism (light skin, hair, and eye colour with vision problems)
- Easy bruising or prolonged bleeding from minor injuries
- Nosebleeds that are difficult to control
- Excessive bleeding during dental procedures or surgery
- Light sensitivity and reduced visual acuity
- Family history of similar symptoms
- Unexplained lung complications or breathing difficulties
Early detection through genetic testing can help manage symptoms more effectively and prevent complications.
