Test Overview & Methodology
CHD7 gene analysis is a next-generation sequencing (NGS) genetic test used to diagnose Kallmann syndrome type 5, a rare condition causing hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and anosmia. The test provides full gene coverage including copy number variant (CNV) detection.
Our Test vs. Closest Alternative
| Parameter | Our CHD7 Genetic Test | Conventional Sanger Sequencing |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | Next-Generation Sequencing (full CHD7 gene coverage, including CNV detection) | Targeted single-exon Sanger sequencing |
| Diagnostic Sensitivity | 99.9% for point mutations & copy number variants | ~95% (limited to pre-selected exons) |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 Weeks | 4–6 Weeks |
| Sample Types | Blood, FTA card, extracted DNA | Usually blood or purified DNA |
| Price (UAE AED) | 2,800 | 3,500–5,000 |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
"As a Consultant Medical Geneticist, I emphasize that CHD7 genetic test results must be interpreted within the full clinical context, including endocrine evaluation and olfactory bulb imaging. A negative result does not exclude other genetic causes of Kallmann syndrome. Patients and families are strongly encouraged to pursue comprehensive genetic counselling before and after testing."

Advisory Notice
⚠ Medication Warning
Do not discontinue or adjust any prescribed hormonal therapy or other medications without explicit instruction from your treating physician.
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
Patient Safety Considerations
- Exclusion: Acute febrile illness, active infection, or unhealed venipuncture site should postpone sample collection.
- Exclusion: Inability to provide informed consent for adults, or absence of legal guardian consent for minors (in accordance with Federal Decree-Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability).
- Emergency Red Flags: If you or your child experience severe vomiting, lethargy, hypotension, or signs of adrenal crisis, seek emergency care immediately. Although not a direct consequence of testing, CHD7 mutations can be associated with adrenal insufficiency in the CHARGE spectrum and require urgent medical evaluation.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is this test used for?
The CHD7 Genetic Test identifies mutations in the CHD7 gene causing Kallmann syndrome type 5, helping to confirm a clinical diagnosis and guide treatment decisions.
2. How is the sample collected?
A simple blood draw, one drop of blood on an FTA card, or previously extracted DNA can be used. Our VIP Mobile Phlebotomy service provides convenient home collection from 8 AM to 11 PM daily.
3. Is this covered by insurance in the UAE?
Many UAE insurance plans cover genetic testing for Kallmann syndrome when medically necessary. We verify coverage via WhatsApp at +971 54 548 8731 and coordinate directly with your insurer.
