Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of pathogenic variants in the F5 gene associated with Factor V deficiency.
📊

Confirms genetic risk for Factor V deficiency

Action: Consult a geneticist and hematologist for management and family testing

📊

No mutations found in the F5 gene; reduces likelihood of Factor V deficiency

Action: Consider other causes if symptoms persist and follow up with a physician

⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If you experience symptoms of bleeding disorders, have a family history of Factor V deficiency, or need guidance on test results.

Limitations

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Factor V deficiency?
Factor V deficiency is a rare genetic bleeding disorder caused by mutations in the F5 gene, leading to reduced levels of Factor V protein needed for blood clotting.
What causes Factor V deficiency?
It is caused by mutations in the F5 gene inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, affecting the production of Factor V protein.
What are the symptoms of Factor V deficiency?
Symptoms include excessive bleeding after injury or surgery, heavy menstrual bleeding, easy bruising, nosebleeds, bleeding gums, and blood in urine or stool.
How is Factor V deficiency diagnosed?
Diagnosis involves blood tests to measure Factor V levels and genetic testing to identify mutations in the F5 gene.
What is the F5 Gene Factor V Deficiency NGS Genetic Test?
It is a next-generation sequencing test that detects mutations in the F5 gene to assess the risk of Factor V deficiency.
What does the test involve?
The test requires a blood sample or extracted DNA, which is analyzed using NGS technology to identify genetic variants.
What is the cost of the test?
The cost at DNA Labs India is INR 20,000, including sample collection, processing, and analysis.
Is home sample collection available?
Yes, DNA Labs India offers free home sample collection for online bookings across various cities in India.
