What causes sickle cell disease?

Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder passed down from parent to offspring through inherited genes.

Sickle cell disease affects hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen through your body.

These sickle-shaped cells get stuck in the blood vessels and block blood flows, leading to pain, fatigue, and serious health complications over time.

This is exactly why knowing your genotype matters to help you make informed decisions
