LHCGR Gene Precocious Puberty Male Genetic Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, a leading genetic lab offering the LHCGR Gene Precocious Puberty Male Genetic Test at a cost of AED 4400.0. This test is designed to diagnose precocious puberty in males by analyzing the LHCGR gene using NGS technology.
Test Details
The LHCGR gene, also known as the luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor gene, is responsible for encoding the receptor for luteinizing hormone (LH) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Mutations in the LHCGR gene can lead to various disorders, including precocious puberty.
Precocious puberty is a condition where a child’s body begins to go through puberty at an abnormally early age, typically before the age of 8 in girls and 9 in boys. This can result in the development of secondary sexual characteristics, such as breast development in girls or testicular enlargement in boys, as well as early growth spurts and advanced bone maturation.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a powerful tool used to identify genetic mutations and variations associated with various disorders. In the context of precocious puberty, an NGS genetic test can be performed to analyze the LHCGR gene for any pathogenic mutations or variants that may be causing the condition.
By identifying specific mutations in the LHCGR gene, NGS testing can help in diagnosing the cause of precocious puberty in males and guide appropriate treatment options. It can also provide important information for genetic counseling and family planning.
It is important to note that NGS genetic testing for precocious puberty should be conducted under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor, who can interpret the results and provide appropriate recommendations based on the individual’s specific situation.
