❤ World Heart Day ❤

On World Heart Day, let's raise awareness about the connection between genetics and heart health. Did you know that some heart conditions can run in families? Hereditary cardiac conditions, such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, familial hypercholesterolemia, and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, can be passed down through generations, affecting heart health and increasing the risk of serious complications.

🧬 Genetic Counseling for Heart Health:
• Identify your risk: Genetic counseling can help assess if you or your family members are at risk for hereditary heart conditions.
• Make informed decisions: Genetic testing provides insight into your family history and helps guide decisions about screenings, treatments, and lifestyle changes.
• Preventative care: Early detection through genetic counseling can prevent or manage heart conditions before they become life-threatening.

💬 If you have a family history of heart disease, consider speaking with a genetic counselor to better understand your risk and take proactive steps to protect your heart health.

Let’s work together to make heart health a priority for everyone. ❤

Most thyroid cancers are not inherited, but in some cases, genetics plays a key role.
Hereditary thyroid cancers can be linked to conditions like:

Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 2 (MEN2)

Familial Medullary Thyroid Cancer (FMTC)

📌 Why genetic testing matters:

Identifies if you or your family members carry a cancer-risk gene.

Enables early screening & prevention.

Guides treatment choices.

💬 If you have a family history of thyroid cancer or related endocrine tumors, talk to your doctor or a genetic counsellor about testing.

💜 Awareness is the first step towards prevention.

Throwback to Marfan Syndrome Awareness Day

Marfan syndrome is a genetic condition that affects connective tissue, impacting the heart, eyes, blood vessels, and skeleton. People with Marfan syndrome are often tall with long limbs, but the condition goes beyond appearance- it can lead to serious heart complications if undiagnosed.

Genetics matter: Marfan syndrome is caused by mutations in the FBN1 gene, which affects the body's ability to make strong connective tissue. Early diagnosis and management can be life-saving!

If you or someone you know has features of Marfan syndrome, consider genetic testing and regular check-ups with a cardiologist. Awareness saves lives!
