What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're planning a pregnancy or are already pregnant and want to know if you carry gene changes that could be passed on to your child. Many carriers of these conditions have no symptoms at all, so testing is the only way to find out. Knowing your carrier status ahead of time helps you and your partner make informed decisions about family planning.

What's included in this test?

This panel checks for gene changes linked to 112 different inherited conditions that follow X-linked or autosomal recessive patterns, meaning a child could be affected if both parents carry a change in the same gene. The conditions covered range from metabolic disorders to muscle, nerve, blood, and organ conditions that can appear in a family with no prior history. Screening this broadly helps catch risks that wouldn't be found through family history alone.

What happens after I get my results?

Your results will be available in your secure account, with each finding explained in plain language along with what a positive or negative carrier result means. If you're found to carry a gene change, a helpful next step is having your partner tested for the same condition to understand the actual risk to a future child. You can download the full lab report from your account at any time, and because this is a one-time genetic screening, there's no need for retesting or tracking results over time the way you would with bloodwork.

How can I naturally support a healthy pregnancy while I wait for results?

While this test looks at inherited genes and can't be changed by lifestyle, supporting a healthy pregnancy in general is still valuable. Taking a prenatal vitamin with folic acid, eating a balanced diet, avoiding alcohol and smoking, and staying active with your care routine are all good habits to start early. These steps support overall pregnancy health regardless of your carrier screening results.

When will I get my results?

Results are typically ready within about 7 days of your sample being received at the lab. You'll get a notification once your report is posted to your account, so there's no need to call and check in. If you need results faster for time-sensitive family planning decisions, it's worth confirming turnaround expectations at the time of ordering.

Who should consider this test?

This test is a good fit for women who are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or thinking about starting a family, regardless of family history or ethnic background. It's especially useful for those with a family history of genetic conditions, prior affected pregnancies, or simply wanting extra peace of mind. Couples who are related to each other or come from communities with higher carrier rates for certain conditions may also find this especially valuable.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Carrier status doesn't cause symptoms in most people, so you won't necessarily feel anything that points you toward this test. Signs that make testing more relevant include a family history of an inherited condition, a previous child or relative affected by a genetic disorder, or simply planning a pregnancy and wanting to screen proactively. Because carriers are usually healthy, screening is really the only reliable way to know your status.

What does a positive carrier result mean?

A positive result means you carry one copy of a gene change linked to a specific condition, but you yourself won't develop that condition since carriers only have one altered copy. The main concern is the chance of passing it to a child if your partner also carries a change in the same gene. In that case, the report explains the estimated risk and why partner testing is a helpful next step.

What does a negative carrier result mean?

A negative result means the panel didn't detect a carrier gene change for the conditions included in this screen, which lowers the chance of passing on those specific conditions. It doesn't guarantee zero risk, since no panel tests for every possible gene change or every condition that exists. Your report explains which conditions were screened so you know exactly what's covered.

What should I do if my results show I'm a carrier?

If you're identified as a carrier, the most useful next step is arranging testing for your partner to see if they carry a change in the same gene. If both partners carry changes in the same gene, the report will explain the risk to a future child and what additional testing options exist during pregnancy. Reviewing the detailed report in your account is a good starting point for understanding your specific situation.
