Understanding Your Results

Results indicate the presence or absence of mutations in the RXFP2 gene, which may be linked to cryptorchidism.
📊

Mutation detected

Increased risk of cryptorchidism; consult a genetic counselor for further management and family planning.

📊

No mutation detected

No genetic cause identified in the RXFP2 gene; consider other etiological factors and clinical evaluation.
