What is genetic testing?

Most genetic tests refer to DNA testing, which is a genetic test. In layman's terms, DNA testing is to check the genes passed down from parents to their children.

In biology, gene refers to the DNA or RNA sequence that carries genetic information. If you want to have a baby in your daily life, but the hospital is afraid that there are some bad genes in the parents that will be passed on to the next generation, you can choose to have both men and women go to the hospital for a DNA test before preparing for pregnancy. DNA test is also a kind of immunohistochemistry test. Through scanning education and transmission electron microscopy, combined with some other medical equipment, it can check and copy some information in the body, and then determine whether this information will be inherited to the next generation after replication.

Genetic testing is divided into biological testing, sex chromosome analysis and DNA analysis. Through testing, the relevant proteins and substances are checked in an organic way to see if there are any bad genes. If there are specific chromosome and gene inheritance problems, it is likely to cause deformities in the baby born in the future. Some people will also have gene mutations during the testing process.

In addition to doing a DNA test before pregnancy, you can also do a non-invasive DNA test after pregnancy if you are at high risk during Down syndrome screening or other prenatal tests.
