Advanced Genetic Testing for Fragile X Syndrome at Dr. Mehmet Koç’s office
Fragile X Syndrome is a genetic condition that causes intellectual disability, behavioral and learning challenges, and various physical characteristics. Symptoms can include developmental delays, learning disabilities, and social and behavioral issues. At Dr. Mehmet Koç’s office, we offer advanced genetic testing services to screen for Fragile X Syndrome, helping you make informed decisions about your family planning.
How Testing Works
- Consultation: We review your medical and family history, and your plans for a family.
- Counseling: We explain the test, what the results can and cannot show, and your options.
- Testing: A blood or saliva sample is sent for laboratory analysis.
- Results: We go through your results with you and discuss the next steps.
If you are having IVF, preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) can check embryos for certain inherited conditions before transfer. Testing has limits, and we will explain them during your consultation.
