Can Thalassemia Be Prevented?

You can't prevent thalassemia, but genetic testing can disclose whether your partner or you carry the gene. Knowing this information can help you plan your pregnancy if you plan to conceive. Speak to a genetic counsellor for suggestions and guidance on family planning if you are sceptical that you or your partner may carry gene mutations for thalassemia.
