Find Clarity for Your Child’s Development with MECP2 Rett Syndrome Testing
When your child shows unexpected developmental changes, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. As parents in South Africa, you deserve clear answers and a path forward. Our MECP2 Gene Rett Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive diagnosis you need to understand your child’s unique health journey and access the right support systems.
Understanding the MECP2 Rett Syndrome Test
This advanced genetic test examines the MECP2 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, the gold standard in genetic testing. The MECP2 gene plays a crucial role in brain development, and mutations in this gene are responsible for Rett Syndrome – a neurological disorder that primarily affects girls. Our test provides comprehensive analysis of this gene, giving you accurate, reliable results you can trust for making informed healthcare decisions.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If your daughter shows any of these concerning signs, this test could provide essential answers:
- Developmental regression after initial normal development
- Loss of purposeful hand skills and speech
- Repetitive hand movements like hand-wringing or clapping
- Walking difficulties or coordination problems
- Breathing abnormalities while awake
- Slowed head growth or microcephaly
- Seizures or irregular sleep patterns
Early testing means earlier intervention, which can significantly improve quality of life and management strategies.
