Genes serve as our body’s instruction manual for growth, development, and function. When there are changes—called variants—in your DNA, they can sometimes lead to medical conditions or developmental challenges.
In some cases, a healthcare provider may identify a condition based on symptoms alone. However, many times, genetic testing is essential to uncover an accurate diagnosis. Because many health conditions have a genetic basis, testing can provide a clearer picture of what’s going on and help inform better treatment and care.
