Need to know more about your blood clotting status? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Factor V Leiden Test in Bay City, . This test looks for a genetic mutation which is commonly associated with an increased risk of abnormal blood clots or thrombosis. Factor V is a protein which plays an important role in hemostasis, the process by which the body stops bleeding when an injury occurs. Factor V Leiden is an inherited mutation which may cause excessive clotting. These irregular blood clots can block veins causing serious health concerns. Factor V Leiden is the most common inherited clotting disorder, affecting 3-8% of people in the U.S. However, not all people with the Factor V Leiden mutation will develop irregular blood clots. About 10% of those affected will have one or more thrombotic episodes.
This test is typically ordered when a person has had one or more unexplained blood clots, especially during pregnancy. It may also be ordered as a preemptive screening for someone who has a family history of clotting disorders.
