A lot of people think that cancer is the only genetic disease which ‘runs in the family’, but the truth is other conditions like miscarriages, infertility & inborn errors are sometimes the result of genetic defects. Yet, people are often referred for genetic testing and counselling, because the results can help them make treatment decisions for themselves and also help the family to better understand their own risks. Realizing the advantages of early diagnosis, people are now becoming more aware of genetic testing, which has fuelled the demand for genetic testing service providers in the market.
