A 46XX Karyotype blood test screens for chromosomal abnormalities to give you helpful information about your genetic makeup. It can also help spot any potential chromosomal issues or disorders like Turner Syndrome early on.
Karyotyping involves taking a sample of your cells and examining the number, size, and shape of your chromosomes under a microscope. The term “46XX” refers to the typical chromosomal pattern in females, consisting of 46 chromosomes (23 pairs).
This test can help identify conditions like Turner syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, and other chromosomal abnormalities that may affect health, development, and sometimes lead to infertility or recurrent miscarriages.
Turner Syndrome happens when one of your X chromosomes is missing or only partly there. This usually leads to various growth and development issues. Triple X Syndrome occurs when there is an extra X chromosome. This extra chromosome can cause learning difficulties and slower development. Mosaicism is when some cells have normal chromosomes, but others have abnormalities, leading to a variety of symptoms. That is why it is so important to get tested if you have a family history of genetic disorders.
