Genotyping

Knowing one’s hemoglobin genotype before choosing a life partner is important because there may be compatibility issues that could have devastating effects when it comes to conception. There are about five different genotypes in humans; AA, AS, AC, SS, and SC. An individual can have any of these genotypes based on what they inherit from their parents.
