How it Works

Why is Genomic Screening for Mom Important?

Your genome is a resource for life. MyGenome is intended for generally healthy adults (18 years and older) who want to be proactive about their health. 

MyGenome gives insights on risks for hereditary diseases in multiple categories including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, immune disorders, endocrine and metabolic disorders, neurological disorders, organ health, and more.

Genomic screening also shares insight into mom’s carrier conditions and shares insight to what you could pass on to your children.

Your Reports

What Can I Expect to Receive with myGenome Screening?

All families will receive a comprehensive report with detailed information about the variants detected and the implications for the newborn. Families will have access to a trusted genetic counselor who will interpret and discuss the results.

Pathogenic variants and probably pathogenic variants classified based on American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) (PMID: 25741868) guidelines are reported.

GENOMIC SCREENING

Frequently Asked Questions

What is whole genome sequencing?

Whole genome sequencing is reading the billions of letters in your DNA, a long chain made up of As, Ts, Cs, and Gs. All your genes are encoded with this 4-letter code, so we analyze your sequence and subsequently look for changes or variants in the genes.

Why sequence the entire genome?

Whole genome sequencing allows all your genetic material to be read by creating a library about you. In this way you will be able to know the relevant information today to prevent and have access to updates in the future, accessing your library again. This trip makes it possible that from now on you can personalize, with the help of your specialist, your health care based on what makes you unique: your DNA.

What is the difference between myGenome Standard and myGenome Premium?

  • Insights on 400+ genes associated with 20+ highly actionable conditions and 125 genes associated with 200+
    carrier conditions
  • Plus all of myGenome Standard
Can my genome change over time?

No. The genetic information of a person does not change, what advances is scientific knowledge for which fortunately we know more every day. For this reason, the genome is a resource for life and that can be consulted over time to find out new findings that have been produced thanks to the advancement of scientific knowledge.

How long does it take to receive my results?

The entire process from receiving your sample, analyzing the information, and producing your results takes between 8 to 14 weeks. The estimated delivery time varies because every person’s genomic information is unique and may require different degrees of analysis.

Are there any states genomic services are not offered?

Yes, Alaska, California, New York, and Washington DC. These states have restrictions and regulations that prevent Americord from offering genomic services to individuals who have blood or saliva collected for genomic testing in these states.

If you are a resident of these restricted states, but deliver or provide a maternal blood outside of these states you can purchase Genomic services.
