Understanding Your Unexplained Symptoms
Have you noticed occasional yellowing of your skin or eyes, experienced unexplained fatigue that comes and goes, or felt abdominal discomfort without clear cause? These could be signs of Gilbert syndrome, a common genetic condition that affects how your liver processes bilirubin. At Oracle Genomics, we understand the anxiety that comes with unexplained symptoms and the need for clear answers about your health.
What Does the UGT1A1 Test Detect?
The UGT1A1 Gene Gilbert Syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test examines the specific gene responsible for producing an enzyme that helps your liver process bilirubin. When this gene has variations, it can lead to Gilbert syndrome – a condition where bilirubin builds up in your bloodstream, causing the characteristic yellowing and other symptoms. Our advanced Next Generation Sequencing technology provides the most accurate analysis available, giving you definitive answers about your genetic makeup.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Intermittent jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes)
- Unexplained fatigue that comes and goes
- Abdominal discomfort or digestive issues
- Family history of liver conditions or jaundice
- Concerns about medication metabolism
- Planning pregnancy and wanting genetic clarity
Why This Matters for Your Health Journey
Getting a definitive diagnosis of Gilbert syndrome can be life-changing. Rather than worrying about more serious liver conditions, you’ll have clarity about your genetic predisposition. This knowledge helps you:
- Understand why certain symptoms occur
- Make informed decisions about medications that might affect your condition
- Reduce anxiety about more serious liver diseases
- Plan your lifestyle and health management with confidence
- Share accurate information with healthcare providers
Understanding Your Results with Confidence
When your results are ready (typically within 3-4 weeks), you’ll receive a comprehensive report that’s easy to understand. Our genetic counselling session, included with your test, ensures you have professional guidance to interpret what your results mean for your health. We’ll explain whether you have the genetic variations associated with Gilbert syndrome and what this means for your daily life and future health decisions.
