What types of genetic testing are available?
There are several types of genetic tests, each suited to a different need. These include carrier screening (to check if an individual is a carrier for a genetic condition), prenatal testing (testings during pregnancy when the prenatal screenings are indicative of the pregnancy to have a genetic condition), diagnostic testing (to confirm a suspected condition), predictive testing (for future health risks like hereditary cancer), and newborn screening. Your geneticist will recommend the right test based on your specific situation.
