Understanding Your Results

Results from the ANOS1 Gene Kallmann Syndrome Type 1 NGS Genetic Test are interpreted by clinical geneticists. A positive result indicates the presence of a pathogenic mutation in the ANOS1 gene, confirming the diagnosis. Negative results may require further clinical evaluation.
📊

Positive for pathogenic variant

Confirms diagnosis of Kallmann syndrome type 1. Genetic counseling and treatment planning recommended.

📊

Negative for pathogenic variant

No mutation detected in the ANOS1 gene. Clinical symptoms may be due to other genetic or non-genetic causes.

📊

Variant of uncertain significance (VUS)

A genetic change was found, but its clinical significance is unknown. Further testing and family studies may be needed.

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

Consult a healthcare provider if you or your child experiences symptoms such as lack of smell, delayed puberty, or infertility. Early diagnosis can guide appropriate management.

Limitations

  • May not detect all types of genetic variants, such as large deletions or intronic mutations
  • Results require clinical correlation and genetic counseling
  • Does not rule out other genetic causes of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism

Risks & Considerations

  • Minor pain or bruising at the blood draw site
  • Very low risk of infection
  • Psychological impact of genetic results

Interfering Factors

  • Sample contamination
  • Degraded DNA quality
  • Incorrect sample storage or handling
