Genetic Men’s checkup in Mumbai at NURA
Your genetic makeup can influence your susceptibility to certain diseases and health conditions. While genetics do not determine whether a person will develop a particular disease, understanding inherited and genetic risk factors can provide valuable information for making informed preventive health decisions.
NURA’s Genetic Men’s checkup in Mumbai is designed to assess genetic susceptibility to selected cancers and lifestyle-related health conditions. The screening combines advanced genome-wide genotyping with polygenic risk scoring to provide insights into an individual’s inherited risk profile. These findings can be considered alongside family history, lifestyle, medical history, and other health information to support a more informed approach to preventive care.
What Does NURA’s Genetic Men’s Screening Assess?
NURA’s Genetic Men’s Screening includes genetic assessment across two broad areas: cancer health risks and lifestyle health risks.
Cancer Health Risks
The genetic screening assesses susceptibility associated with several cancers, including:
- Colon cancer
- Pancreatic cancer
- Thyroid cancer
- Oesophageal cancer
- Lung cancer
- Renal cancer
- Blood cancers
- Liver cancer
- Prostate cancer
These genetic insights can be particularly relevant for individuals with a family history of cancer or those who want to understand their inherited susceptibility as part of a broader preventive health strategy.
Lifestyle Health Risks
Genetic factors can also contribute to susceptibility to several chronic and lifestyle-related conditions. NURA’s Genetic Men’s Screening includes assessment related to:
- Coronary heart disease
- Coronary artery calcification
- Atrial fibrillation
- Heart failure
- Myocardial infarction
- Long QT syndrome
- Non-obstructive coronary artery disease
- Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
- Stroke
- Ischemic stroke
- Hypertension
- Type 1 diabetes
- Type 2 diabetes
- Insulin sensitivity
- Crohn’s disease
- Ulcerative colitis
- Celiac disease
- Gluten sensitivity
- Chronic kidney disease
- Kidney stones
- Hypothyroidism
- Autoimmune thyroid disease
- Migraine
- Alzheimer’s disease
- Gout
- Osteoporosis
The presence of a genetic risk does not establish a diagnosis. It indicates that the individual’s genetic profile may be associated with a particular susceptibility and should be interpreted appropriately.
How Does the Genetic Screening Work?
NURA’s Genetic Men’s Screening begins with a blood sample collection. Approximately 3–4 ml of blood is collected and sent to a laboratory for genetic extraction and analysis.
The screening uses advanced genome-wide genotyping to examine a broad range of genetic variations. This approach can identify specific variants and other genetic differences that may contribute to disease susceptibility.
The package also incorporates Polygenic Risk Scoring (PRS). Rather than looking at a single genetic variant in isolation, PRS considers the combined effect of multiple genetic variants associated with a particular disease or trait. This information is used to estimate inherited susceptibility to selected conditions.
Why Consider Genetic Screening for Men?
Many health conditions can develop due to a combination of genetics, lifestyle, environmental factors, and age. A person may appear healthy while still carrying genetic variants associated with increased susceptibility to certain diseases.
Genetic screening can provide an additional layer of information that may be useful when considering preventive health. It may help individuals have more informed discussions with healthcare professionals about appropriate monitoring, lifestyle choices, family history, and other preventive measures.
It can be particularly relevant if you:
- Have a family history of cancer or lifestyle-related diseases
- Want to understand your genetic disease susceptibility
- Are interested in proactive health management
- Want additional information beyond conventional health screening
- Have concerns about inherited health risks
- Want to understand potential genetic factors that may influence your long-term health
NURA currently lists the Genetic Men’s Screening for asymptomatic healthy individuals, people interested in understanding their genetic disease susceptibility, and those with a family history of cancers or lifestyle diseases. The package is available for individuals above 16 years of age.
