Find Clarity About Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Type 19
Living with unexplained respiratory symptoms or concerned about a family history of ciliary disorders can be overwhelming. Our LRRC6 Gene DNA test provides the answers you need to understand your genetic health and make informed decisions for your future.
Understanding the LRRC6 Gene Test
Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) Type 19 is a rare genetic condition affecting the tiny hair-like structures called cilia that line your respiratory tract and other organs. When these cilia don’t function properly, it can lead to chronic respiratory infections, sinus problems, and fertility issues. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines the LRRC6 gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying mutations that could be affecting your health.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Chronic cough and respiratory infections from early childhood
- Recurrent sinus infections and nasal congestion
- Frequent middle ear infections or hearing problems
- Unexplained fertility issues in males or females
- Family history of primary ciliary dyskinesia or related conditions
- Situs inversus (organs on opposite sides of the body)
If you’re struggling with these symptoms without clear answers, genetic testing can provide the clarity you deserve.
