Simple, Precise, advanced DNA testing
CARRIER SCREENING DNA TEST
Carrier screening identifies whether you carry gene changes that could be passed on to your children. Most carriers are healthy themselves, but when both partners carry the same recessive condition, there can be a higher chance of an affected child.
Knowing your carrier status helps you and your partner make informed decisions about family planning with confidence.
Many genetic conditions are recessive, meaning a child is only affected if they inherit the gene from both parents. A carrier has one copy, stays healthy, and usually has no idea. When two carriers of the same condition have a child, that child can be affected. Carrier testing tells you your carrier status before or early in family planning.
Being a carrier does not mean you are ill or that your child will automatically be affected, it is information about probability, best understood as a couple and with our Genetic Counsellor who can explain your specific situation.
