Understanding Your Results
Positive
Pathogenic variant detected in SULT2A1 gene, indicating increased genetic risk for PCOS Type 1. Consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
Negative
No pathogenic variants detected. PCOS may still be present due to environmental or other genetic factors. Clinical correlation is recommended.
Variant of Uncertain Significance
A genetic variant was found, but its clinical significance is unknown. Additional testing or family studies may be needed.
If you experience symptoms of PCOS such as irregular periods, excess hair growth, or infertility, or if you have a family history of PCOS, consult a healthcare provider for evaluation and possible genetic testing.
Limitations
- ⚠Test only analyzes the SULT2A1 gene and may not detect all genetic causes of PCOS
- ⚠Results should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical symptoms and other diagnostic tests
- ⚠Genetic variants of uncertain significance may require further investigation
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minimal risk from blood draw: bruising, soreness, or rare infection at the puncture site
- ●No significant risks associated with genetic testing itself, but results may cause emotional distress; genetic counseling is recommended
Interfering Factors
- ●Poor sample quality or hemolysis
- ●Contamination during collection or processing
- ●Recent blood transfusion or stem cell transplant
