This Factor V Leiden test checks for a specific genetic mutation that increases your risk of developing blood clots, helping identify a potential cause for your symptoms.

Finding the cause(s) of:

  • Blood clots: This test looks for the Factor V Leiden mutation, a common genetic reason why blood clots can form more easily.
  • Clot during pregnancy: Identifying the Factor V Leiden mutation can help explain why a clot occurred during pregnancy, as this condition increases that risk.
  • Family history of clots: Since Factor V Leiden is inherited, this test can help determine if a family history of clots is related to this specific genetic mutation.
  • Recurrent clots: Finding the Factor V Leiden mutation can explain why you may be experiencing repeated blood clots.
