How important is protecting the health of your future family?
How often do you as a couple hope for a family that's healthy?
Do you worry about what health conditions you might pass on to your future child?
truGeny helps couples to learn and assess if there are any genetic risks they carry which could possibly be passed on to their children.
With expert guidance and advanced testing, truGeny makes it easy for couples to plan better for a healthier family.
Our DNA contains two copies of every gene - one inherited from the mother and one from the father. Genes are respomsible for passing along family characteristics like hair, eye color, height and so on.
Sometimes they also pass on inherited conditions such as thalassemia, cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anaemia, spinal muscular atrophy and so on .
It can be worrisome for couples planning to have a baby, because a carrier doesn’t necessarily know if he or she carries a genetic condition, as there may be no symptoms of the disease.
A carrier is an individual who carries a genetic mutation associated with a disease. While the individual may not display disease symptoms and is therefore unaware that they have a gene for a disorder, he or she may pass on this mutation to their children.
An abnormal change in a gene is known as a mutation.
Know your risk to take ACTION.
It’s important to KNOW.
As a prospective parent, learning about your risk of passing on a genetic disease to your future offspring before pregnancy will provide you more time with wider range of options to make an informed decision.
