You May Need Help Interpreting Your Results

Receiving information about your genes can be perplexing, if not overwhelming. After all, the majority of people lack a degree in molecular biology, and scientists are still figuring out the limits of what the DNA sequences can tell us.

As a result, you may require assistance in interpreting your results. Many genetic testing services provide analysis portals where you can learn more about your ancestors and even find distant relatives. They may also provide additional information on health-related genes and what they mean.

There are also a number of third-party databases where you can submit your DNA sequencing results. These provide a different perspective on your ancestry and allow you to combine sequencing results from various at-home tests.
