When both husband and wife have Thalassemia Minor, there is a 25% chance that a child born to them will have Thalassemia Major. A person having Thalassemia Major rarely lives beyond 30 years – less than half that most persons live. Prenatal testing and consulting a doctor can help prevent this from happening.
Get yourself tested at any Metropolis Laboratory all over the country at a discounted rate of Rs.499 only.

Many have heard of the word Thalassemia but
very few actually know about this deadly disorder
and the importance of testing for it. This video
highlights the suffering that this genetic disorder
can cause and how it is linked to marriage and
children.
It is believed that having Thalassemia Minor can restrict you from having children, however timely testing and doctor guidance can even allow two people with Thalassemia minor to have healthy children without Thalassemia.
This highlights the painful fact that this disorder reduces life expectancy substantially, often to less than half of average life expectancy.
This reinforces the struggle that people suffering from this disorder have to go through, in terms of undergoing blood transfusions every 15 days and each transfusion takes 8-10 hours.
This reiterates the importance of testing before marriage ideally or at least before planning a child – to ensure a healthy life for your future child.
This is a silent yet powerful reminder to go and get your test done today!
