What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're dealing with unexplained infertility, repeated miscarriage, stillbirth, or a pregnancy loss and want to understand if a chromosome issue might be a factor. It's also used when a child has developmental delay, intellectual disability, congenital anomalies, or ambiguous genitalia and a genetic cause needs to be ruled out. The test looks at the structure and number of chromosomes to spot larger genetic changes that could explain these concerns.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will be posted in your account along with an explanation of what a normal chromosome pattern looks like versus one with a detected change. If the initial analysis comes back normal, this test automatically reflexes to a more detailed microarray analysis to check for smaller, submicroscopic changes that a standard chromosome count can miss. You can download the full lab report from your account at any time, and because this is typically a one-time diagnostic test rather than something you retest routinely, the trends feature is most useful if you're tracking related lab work over time. If a chromosome change is found, the report will explain what it means so you know what kind of follow-up testing or specialist input might be useful next.

What's included in this test?

This test includes a full chromosome analysis (karyotype) of blood cells, checking for missing, extra, rearranged, or broken chromosome material, with an automatic reflex to the Postnatal ClariSure Oligo-SNP microarray if the initial analysis is normal. The chromosome analysis detects larger structural and numerical changes that can explain infertility, pregnancy loss, developmental delay, intellectual disability, congenital anomalies, or ambiguous genitalia. The reflex microarray step adds sensitivity to catch submicroscopic deletions, duplications, and long continuous regions of homozygosity that the standard analysis alone could miss, giving a more complete genetic picture.

How can I naturally support reproductive and developmental health?

While chromosome patterns themselves can't be changed through lifestyle, supporting your overall reproductive health can help create the best conditions for conception and pregnancy. Eating a balanced diet, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding smoking and excess alcohol, and managing stress all support fertility and pregnancy outcomes. Taking a prenatal vitamin with folic acid before and during pregnancy is also recommended for anyone trying to conceive.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about 7 days, though the reflex microarray step (if triggered by a normal initial result) may add extra time since it involves an additional layer of analysis. You'll see your results posted in your account as soon as they're finalized, along with plain-language explanations. This timeline reflects the detailed nature of chromosome analysis, which is more involved than a standard blood panel.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good fit for couples experiencing infertility or recurrent miscarriage, anyone who has had a stillbirth, and parents of a child with unexplained developmental delay, intellectual disability, or physical differences at birth. It's also considered when a baby is born with ambiguous genitalia. Genetic counseling beforehand can help you understand what results might mean for your specific situation.

What symptoms or situations indicate I may need this test?

Signs that this test may be relevant include difficulty conceiving after a year of trying, two or more pregnancy losses, a stillbirth, or a newborn with unusual physical features or ambiguous genitalia. It's also used when a child shows delayed milestones, learning difficulties, or intellectual disability without a clear cause. If any of these situations apply to you or your family, this test can help identify whether a chromosome change is involved.

What does it mean if a chromosome change is found?

A detected chromosome change means there's an alteration in the number or structure of your chromosomes, such as a missing, extra, or rearranged piece. Depending on which chromosome is involved and how, this can explain fertility struggles, pregnancy loss, or a child's developmental symptoms, but the specific impact varies a lot from case to case. Your report will explain the finding in plain language so you understand what it involves.

What does a normal result mean?

A normal chromosome analysis means no large-scale changes were found in the number or structure of your chromosomes. Because this test can't rule out very small, submicroscopic changes on its own, a normal result automatically triggers the microarray follow-up test to look more closely. This two-step approach gives you a more thorough answer than a single test alone.

What should I do if my results show a chromosome change?

If a change is found, take time to review the detailed explanation in your report so you understand exactly what was detected. Consider genetic counseling to help translate the finding into practical next steps for family planning or your child's care. Sharing the full report with any specialists involved in your care can help them tailor recommendations to your specific result.
