Understanding Your Genetic Health: NNT Gene Glucocorticoid Deficiency Testing
If you’ve been experiencing unexplained fatigue, weakness, or salt cravings that don’t seem to have a clear cause, you’re not alone. Many South Africans struggle with mysterious symptoms that affect their daily lives. Our NNT gene test provides the clarity you need to understand your body’s unique genetic makeup and how it affects your hormone production.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The NNT gene plays a crucial role in your body’s ability to produce glucocorticoids – essential hormones that help you manage stress, regulate metabolism, and maintain energy levels. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to glucocorticoid deficiency type 4, a condition where your adrenal glands don’t produce enough of these vital hormones.
Using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we analyse your DNA with exceptional accuracy to identify any mutations in the NNT gene. This advanced testing method ensures reliable results that can guide your healthcare journey.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained chronic fatigue and weakness
- Frequent salt cravings or low blood pressure
- Difficulty handling physical or emotional stress
- Family history of adrenal or hormone disorders
- Unexplained weight loss or poor appetite
- Dizziness when standing up quickly
If these symptoms sound familiar, genetic testing could provide the answers you’ve been seeking.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting tested for NNT gene mutations offers significant benefits:
- Peace of Mind: Eliminate uncertainty about your symptoms
- Early Intervention: Begin appropriate treatment before complications develop
- Family Planning: Understand genetic risks for future generations
