Carrier Status reports*
40+ reports
Being a "carrier" means you "carry" one genetic variant for a condition. Carriers do not typically have the genetic condition, but they can pass a genetic variant down to their children. If both parents are carriers, there is a 25% chance their child will have the condition.
Understanding your carrier status helps you work with your doctor to prepare for the health of your future family.

Hi. Still have questions about service?
Here are just a few of the things people frequently ask about 23andMe.
If you don't see your question here,
get in touch with us.
FAQs
The 23andMe DNA database has more than three million genotyped customers worldwide. You will continue to find new relatives as our database grows over time.
Yes. Our service has tools that enable you to share your reports with friends and family. In fact, the more family members that participate in 23andMe, the more interactive and engaging your results will be. When you share with family members who are 23andMe customers, you can see how genes are passed down in your family – and see the similarities and differences between family members – which can help you understand and connect to one another. Sharing and comparing information can be a great starting point for discussing and learning more about your identities, health conditions, ancestry and more.
Genetic information is hereditary and tells you many things about your close relatives as well as yourself. You should consider whether your family wants to know all of the information available, so be thoughtful about sharing it.
Your results may be useful to share with your doctor.
Genetic counselors can answer your questions about health-related DNA testing. These are health professionals that have special training in genetic conditions. They can help you decide whether genetic testing is right for you, and they can also help you better understand your 23andMe results. We provide a link to resources that can help you locate a genetic counselor in your area and enable you to download a file to share your genetic reports.
23andMe offers two Personal Genetic Services: Health + Ancestry and Ancestry. Both services require submitting a saliva sample using our saliva collection kit that you send to the lab for analysis.
Our Health + Ancestry Service provides insights on your genetic health risks*, carrier status*, traits, wellness and ancestry. We analyze, compile and distill the information extracted from your DNA into 75+ reports you can access online and share with family and friends. See full list of reports offered.
Our Ancestry Service helps you understand who you are, where your DNA comes from and your family story. We analyze, compile and distill your DNA information into reports on your Ancestry Composition, Maternal & Paternal Haplogroups, Neanderthal Ancestry, Your DNA Family and provide a DNA Relatives tool to enable you to connect with relatives who share similar DNA.
*The 23andMe PGS test uses qualitative genotyping to detect select clinically relevant variants in the genomic DNA of adults from saliva for the purpose of reporting and interpreting genetic health risks and reporting carrier status. It is not intended to diagnose any disease. Your ethnicity may affect the relevance of each report and how your genetic health risk results are interpreted. Each genetic health risk report describes if a person has variants associated with a higher risk of developing a disease, but does not describe a person’s overall risk of developing the disease. The test is not intended to tell you anything about your current state of health, or to be used to make medical decisions, including whether or not you should take a medication, how much of a medication you should take, or determine any treatment. Our carrier status reports can be used to determine carrier status, but cannot determine if you have two copies of any genetic variant. These carrier reports are not intended to tell you anything about your risk for developing a disease in the future, the health of your fetus, or your newborn child's risk of developing a particular disease later in life. For certain conditions, we provide a single report that includes information on both carrier status and genetic health risk. Warnings & Limitations: The 23andMe PGS Genetic Health Risk Report for BRCA1/BRCA2 (Selected Variants) is indicated for reporting of the 185delAG and 5382insC variants in the BRCA1 gene and the 6174delT variant in the BRCA2 gene. The report describes if a woman is at increased risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer, and if a man is at increased risk of developing breast cancer or may be at increased risk of developing prostate cancer. The three variants included in this report are most common in people of Ashkenazi Jewish descent and do not represent the majority of BRCA1/BRCA2 variants in the general population. This report does not include variants in other genes linked to hereditary cancers and the absence of variants included in this report does not rule out the presence of other genetic variants that may impact cancer risk. The PGS test is not a substitute for visits to a healthcare professional for recommended screenings or appropriate follow-up. Results should be confirmed in a clinical setting before taking any medical action.

Maternal & Paternal Haplogroups
Discover the origins of your maternal (your mother's mother's mother's…) and paternal (your father's father's father's…) ancestors and how they moved around the world over thousands of years.
We report on your maternal and paternal lineage by identifying your haplogroups. A haplogroup can trace part of your ancestry back to a specific group of individuals in the distant past.
Women can only trace their maternal haplogroup. This is because the paternal haplogroup is traced through the Y chromosome, which women do not inherit.

The relevance of each report may vary based on ethnicity. Our carrier status reports can be used to determine carrier status, but cannot determine if you have two copies of any genetic variant. These carrier reports are not intended to tell you anything about your risk for developing a disease in the future or anything about the health of your fetus, or your newborn child's risk of developing a particular disease later in life. For certain conditions, we provide a single report that includes information on both carrier status and genetic health risk. The Cystic Fibrosis carrier status report is indicated for the detection of 28 variants in the CFTR gene and is most relevant for people of Ashkenazi Jewish, European, and Hispanic/Latino descent. The Sickle Cell Anemia carrier status report is indicated for the detection of the HbS variant in the HBB gene and is most relevant for people of African descent. The carrier status reports related to hereditary hearing loss consist of two tests – one indicated for the detection of two variants in the GJB2 gene which is most relevant for people of Ashkenazi Jewish and European descent, and one indicated for the detection of six variants in the SLC26A4 gene.
