Find Clarity for Unexplained Salt-Wasting Conditions
When your body struggles to maintain proper salt and electrolyte balance, it can feel frightening and confusing. The SCNN1B Gene Pseudohypoaldosteronism Type 1 test provides the answers you need to understand these complex genetic conditions and take control of your health journey.
Understanding Your SCNN1B Genetic Test
This advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) test examines the SCNN1B gene for mutations that cause pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1, an autosomal recessive condition affecting how your kidneys manage salt balance. Think of it as a detailed genetic map that reveals why your body might be losing excessive salt despite normal aldosterone levels.
Our test uses cutting-edge NGS technology to provide comprehensive analysis, ensuring we don’t miss any important genetic variations that could be affecting your health.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your child experiences:
- Unexplained salt cravings or excessive salt consumption
- Recurrent dehydration despite adequate fluid intake
- Failure to thrive in infancy or childhood
- Electrolyte imbalances detected in blood tests
- Family history of salt-wasting disorders
- Unexplained vomiting, poor weight gain, or developmental delays
Many South African families have found answers through this test when traditional medical evaluations couldn’t explain their symptoms.
