- Genetic testing can still be very helpful for disease management, research participation, and family planning even if you already have a diagnosis. For PKU specifically, understanding the specific genetic changes, also called variants, that cause your PKU can help to better predict symptoms over time, response to certain treatments, and even eligibility to participate in certain research studies and clinical trials.
If you are an adult living in the United States interested in pursuing genetic testing but have a financial barrier, the NPKUA Genetic Testing Program provides no-cost genetic testing to eligible participants. Learn more here or contact registry@npkua.org!
