Find Clarity for Your Skin and Liver Health Concerns
Living with unexplained skin sensitivity, blistering, or worrying about liver function can be incredibly stressful. You might feel like you’re constantly managing symptoms without understanding the underlying cause. Our UROD Gene Porphyria Cutanea Tarda NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you deserve, using the most advanced genetic technology available in South Africa.
Understanding Your UROD Gene Porphyria Test
This specialised DNA test examines the UROD gene, which plays a crucial role in your body’s ability to process certain substances. When this gene isn’t working properly, it can lead to Porphyria Cutanea Tarda – a condition that affects both your skin and liver function. Our test uses Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, the gold standard in genetic testing, to provide you with accurate, reliable results you can trust.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained skin blistering or fragility, especially on sun-exposed areas
- Increased skin sensitivity to sunlight
- Darkening or changes in skin pigmentation
- Abnormal liver function test results
- Family history of similar skin or liver conditions
- Persistent itching or skin discomfort without clear cause
Many South Africans live with these symptoms for years without getting proper answers. Our test can provide the clarity needed to move forward with confidence.
