Important information before taking the test

Before undergoing the tellmeGen Advanced genetic analysis, it is important to know the following: The tellmeGen Advanced genetic analysis is designed to detect relevant genetic variants in DNA from a saliva sample. It provides information about genetic vulnerability to health conditions and carrier status of hereditary conditions. Although useful, the information provided is not intended to diagnose diseases or assess your current health status.

The reports describe whether you have genetic variants associated with an increased vulnerability to develop certain diseases. However, they do not offer a calculation of the total risk of developing these diseases, as other factors, such as environmental ones, may influence disease development. Ethnicity can influence the relevance of the reports and the interpretation of genetic vulnerability results. The information provided should be discussed with a health professional. The results should not be used to make medical decisions without additional confirmation in a clinical setting.
