G6PD Mutations Detection - Book Test at Low Cost

This test examines G6PD levels in the blood. G6PD is an enzyme that helps red blood cells function properly. Red blood cells transport oxygen from the lungs to every cell. Your cells require oxygen to survive and flourish.

A lack of G6PD causes G6PD insufficiency. This is a male-specific genetic disease. Red blood cells can be destroyed by G6PD deficiency. Hemolytic anemia occurs when the body's ability to replace red blood cells is slowed. With hemolytic anemia, your cells don't get enough oxygen.

Why done? 

If you have hemolytic anemia, you may need a G6PD test. These are:

• Fatigue
• Pale skin or jaundice, a yellowing of the skin and eyes
• A fast heart

If your baby's jaundice lasts longer than two weeks and isn't caused by another condition, a G6PD test may be required.
