Understanding Your Family’s Genetic Health Journey
When you’re concerned about holoprosencephaly running in your family, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. We understand the emotional weight of genetic health questions and the importance of getting clear, reliable answers. Our SHH Gene Holoprosencephaly Type 3 NGS Genetic DNA Test is designed to provide the clarity and peace of mind South African families deserve.
What This Test Reveals About Your Genetic Health
The SHH gene plays a crucial role in early brain development, and mutations in this gene can lead to holoprosencephaly type 3 – a condition where the brain doesn’t properly separate into two hemispheres. Our advanced NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology examines your DNA with exceptional precision, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could impact your family’s health.
This isn’t just a test – it’s a comprehensive genetic health assessment that includes professional genetic counselling to help you understand the results in the context of your family history.
Is This Test Right for Your Family?
This genetic test is particularly important for South African families who:
- Have a family history of holoprosencephaly or related brain development conditions
- Are planning pregnancy and want to understand genetic risks
- Have experienced pregnancy loss or complications related to brain development
- Have children with facial abnormalities or developmental delays
- Want peace of mind about their genetic health before starting a family
Many families across Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban have found clarity through this testing, helping them make informed decisions about their health journey.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Family’s Future

- Guide family planning decisions with confidence
