- Blood
- Extracted DNA
- One drop of blood on FTA Card
Report Delivery
Reports are typically delivered within 3 to 4 weeks after the sample is received.
Method
The SHBG Gene Androgen-binding protein deficiency Genetic Test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology for efficient sequencing of large amounts of DNA.
Test Type

Doctor
This test can be ordered by a General Physician.
Test Department
The SHBG Gene Androgen-binding protein deficiency Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to taking the SHBG Gene Androgen-binding protein deficiency Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the condition.
Test Details
The SHBG gene, also known as the sex hormone-binding globulin gene, codes for a protein called sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG). This protein is responsible for binding to and transporting sex hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen, in the blood.
Androgen-binding protein deficiency is a condition characterized by a deficiency or dysfunction of the androgen-binding protein (ABP), which is primarily produced in the testes. ABP plays a crucial role in binding to androgen hormones, such as testosterone, in the male reproductive system.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is a high-throughput sequencing technology that allows for the rapid and efficient sequencing of large amounts of DNA. It is commonly used for genetic testing to identify variations or mutations in specific genes, including the SHBG gene or genes associated with androgen-binding protein deficiency.
During the SHBG Gene Androgen-binding protein deficiency Genetic Test, the DNA of an individual is sequenced using NGS to identify any variations or mutations in the target genes. This information can aid in the diagnosis of genetic abnormalities associated with the SHBG gene or androgen-binding protein deficiency.

A genetic test for SHBG gene or androgen-binding protein deficiency using NGS would involve sequencing the DNA of an individual to identify any variations or mutations in the target genes. This information can help in diagnosing the presence of genetic abnormalities associated with SHBG gene or androgen-binding protein deficiency. |
