DNA Labs India: FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia - Symptoms, Diagnosis, and NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost

Afibrinogenemia is a rare bleeding disorder where the body cannot produce fibrinogen, a protein that helps the blood clot. Congenital afibrinogenemia, in particular, is caused by a genetic mutation in the FGB gene that codes for fibrinogen. DNA Labs India offers a Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) Genetic DNA Test for FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia, which costs INR 20,000. Here's everything you need to know about this disorder, its symptoms, and diagnosis.

Symptoms of FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia

The symptoms of afibrinogenemia can vary from person to person, but they typically include:

• Excessive bleeding from minor cuts or injuries
• Nosebleeds that are difficult to stop
• Bruising easily
• Heavy menstrual bleeding in women
• Bleeding into joints, muscles, or internal organs (in severe cases)

These symptoms usually appear in early childhood, but some people may not experience them until later in life. The severity of the symptoms can also vary, with some people having mild bleeding episodes and others experiencing life-threatening bleeding.

Diagnosis of FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia

Afibrinogenemia is diagnosed through a series of tests that evaluate the body's ability to clot blood. These tests may include:

• Complete blood count (CBC) to check for low platelet counts
• Bleeding time test to measure how long it takes for a cut to stop bleeding
• Clotting factor test to determine if there is a deficiency in any clotting factors
• Fibrinogen test to measure the amount of fibrinogen in the blood

If these tests suggest that the patient has afibrinogenemia, genetic testing can confirm the diagnosis. DNA Labs India offers an NGS Genetic DNA Test for FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia, which can detect mutations in the FGB gene that cause the disorder.

NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost for FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia

The NGS Genetic DNA Test for FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia costs INR 20,000 at DNA Labs India. This test uses advanced sequencing technology to analyze the patient's DNA and detect mutations in the FGB gene that can cause afibrinogenemia. The test is non-invasive and involves collecting a small sample of blood or saliva from the patient.

Conclusion

FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia is a rare bleeding disorder caused by a genetic mutation in the FGB gene that codes for fibrinogen. The disorder can cause excessive bleeding from minor cuts or injuries, nosebleeds, bruising, and heavy menstrual bleeding in women. Afibrinogenemia is diagnosed through a series of blood tests and can be confirmed with genetic testing. DNA Labs India offers an NGS Genetic DNA Test for FGB Gene Afibrinogenemia, which costs INR 20,000 and can detect mutations in the FGB gene. Early diagnosis and treatment can help manage the symptoms of afibrinogenemia and prevent life-threatening bleeding episodes.
