What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing recurrent miscarriages, have a family history of genetic disorders, or if your doctor suspects a chromosomal abnormality. It helps identify structural changes or missing pieces in your chromosomes that could explain fertility issues, developmental delays, or certain health conditions. Many people use this test when they need answers about unexplained pregnancy loss or when genetic counseling recommends chromosome evaluation.

What's included in this test?

This test examines all 46 chromosomes in your blood cells to detect numerical abnormalities (like having too many or too few chromosomes) and structural changes (such as deletions, duplications, or rearrangements). The analysis provides a complete karyotype that can identify conditions like Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and balanced translocations. This comprehensive chromosomal picture helps explain fertility problems, recurrent pregnancy loss, developmental concerns, or familial genetic patterns.

What happens after I get my results?

You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your chromosome analysis reveals and whether any abnormalities were detected. These notes include personalized recommendations about genetic counseling, family planning options, or whether specialized follow-up testing is needed. You'll also get the standard lab report with your karyotype findings, and our system allows you to securely share these results with your healthcare provider or genetic counselor.

Who should consider getting this test?
This test is important for couples experiencing recurrent miscarriages or infertility, individuals with a family history of chromosomal disorders, and parents of children with developmental delays or birth defects. It's also recommended if you've been referred by a genetic counselor, are planning to have children and have risk factors, or if prenatal testing suggested a possible chromosomal issue.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Consider this test if you've had two or more miscarriages, difficulty conceiving, or a family history of genetic conditions. Other indicators include having a child with developmental delays or birth defects, irregular physical features that suggest a genetic syndrome, or if you're a couple where one partner has a known chromosomal rearrangement. Your doctor may also recommend it if you have unexplained infertility or abnormal prenatal screening results.
What is a chromosome abnormality and why does it matter?
Chromosomes are structures in your cells that carry your genetic information, and you normally have 46 of them arranged in 23 pairs. Abnormalities occur when there are extra or missing chromosomes, or when pieces are broken, rearranged, or duplicated. These changes can affect fertility, cause miscarriages, lead to developmental delays, or result in specific genetic conditions, which is why identifying them helps explain health issues and guides family planning decisions.
What does an abnormal result mean?
An abnormal result means that a chromosomal change was detected in your blood cells. This could be a numerical abnormality (wrong number of chromosomes), a structural rearrangement (pieces swapped or moved), or a deletion/duplication (missing or extra genetic material). The significance depends on the specific finding—some changes explain fertility issues or miscarriages but don't affect your health, while others may be associated with specific medical conditions. Your doctor or genetic counselor will explain what your specific result means for you and your family.
How can genetic counseling help after this test?
Genetic counseling provides expert guidance to help you understand your chromosome analysis results and what they mean for you and your family. A genetic counselor can explain the likelihood of passing on a chromosomal abnormality to children, discuss reproductive options like IVF with genetic testing, and help you make informed decisions about family planning. They can also connect you with support resources and recommend additional testing if needed.
What happens if my results show a balanced translocation?
A balanced translocation means pieces of two chromosomes have swapped places, but no genetic material is missing or extra. While this typically doesn't affect your own health, it can increase the risk of miscarriage or having a child with an unbalanced chromosome arrangement. Many people with balanced translocations have healthy children, but genetic counseling and prenatal testing options like amniocentesis or preimplantation genetic testing can help ensure the best outcomes.
Can chromosome abnormalities be treated?
Chromosomal abnormalities themselves cannot be changed or treated, as they're present in your genetic makeup. However, knowing about them is extremely valuable for managing your health and making informed family planning decisions. For fertility-related chromosome issues, reproductive options like IVF with preimplantation genetic testing can help select embryos with normal chromosomes. For health-related concerns, early intervention, specialized medical care, and support services can significantly improve quality of life.
