Find Answers for Unexplained Bone Pain and Growth Concerns
When you or your child experience persistent bone pain, frequent fractures, or delayed growth, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our SLC34A3 genetic test provides the clarity you need to understand hypophosphatemic rickets with hypercalciuria – a condition that affects both bone development and kidney function. We’re here to guide you through this journey with compassion and medical expertise.
Understanding Your Genetic Test
This advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) test examines the SLC34A3 gene, which plays a crucial role in phosphate regulation in your body. When this gene isn’t working properly, it can lead to:
- Poor bone mineralisation (rickets)
- Excessive calcium in urine (hypercalciuria)
- Bone pain and weakness
- Growth delays in children
By identifying the specific genetic cause, we can create targeted treatment plans that address the root of your symptoms.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your child experience:
- Unexplained bone pain or tenderness
- Frequent fractures with minimal trauma
- Delayed growth or short stature
- Bone deformities (bowed legs, curved spine)
- Dental problems or delayed tooth development
- Family history of similar bone conditions
- Kidney stones or high calcium in urine tests
Many patients tell us they’ve spent years searching for answers – our test can provide the clarity you’ve been seeking.
