Find Clarity About Congenital Adrenal Conditions with Advanced Genetic Testing
We understand the worry that comes when facing potential hereditary adrenal conditions. The uncertainty about your child’s health or your family’s genetic legacy can feel overwhelming. At Oracle Genomics, we provide the definitive answers you need through our specialised STAR Gene Lipoid Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia NGS Genetic DNA Test – giving South African families the clarity and peace of mind they deserve.
Understanding Your STAR Gene Test
This advanced genetic test specifically examines the STAR gene, which plays a crucial role in adrenal gland function. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to Lipoid Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia – a rare but serious condition affecting hormone production. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology provides the most comprehensive analysis available, detecting even the smallest genetic variations with exceptional accuracy.
Think of this test as your family’s genetic roadmap – it doesn’t just identify current concerns but helps map out potential health journeys, empowering you with knowledge for better healthcare decisions.
Who Should Consider This Important Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family experience:
- Unexplained adrenal insufficiency in infants or children
- Family history of congenital adrenal conditions
- Delayed puberty or abnormal sexual development
- Recurrent adrenal crises requiring emergency care
- Planning pregnancy with known family genetic risks
- Unexplained salt-wasting symptoms in newborns
Many South African families have found life-changing answers through this testing, transforming uncertainty into actionable health plans.
