MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase)

MTHFR (methatetrahydrofolate reductase) blood test (Purple Top Vacutainer) to identify mutations in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene. A double copy of the gene mutation (homozygous) confers a risk of high homocysteine levels which in turn increases the risk of clots, DVT, pulmonary embolism and recurrent miscarriage or pregnancy loss.
