Matchmygenome (Comprehensive Couple Carrier Screening on Whole Exome) near me in Bhopal

The Matchmygenome (Comprehensive Couple Carrier Screening on Whole Exome) test is a comprehensive genetic test that determines carrier status for common genetic disorders in couples, helping assess the risk of passing on genetic conditions to future offspring.

Carrier screening is a crucial genetic test recommended by ACOG for all individuals either preconception or during pregnancy. This test identifies if an individual carries one copy of a mutated gene associated with recessive genetic disorders. Carrier screening is essential because carriers are typically healthy individuals with no symptoms, making it challenging to identify potential risks without testing. The MatchmyGenome Couple Carrier Screening uses high-resolution Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) to detect pathogenic variants, providing valuable insights into carrier status and aiding in informed reproductive planning.
