Simple steps to check your Carrier Status with Jeen.
Buy your online genetic consult + carrier screening kit. It will prepare you for all the outcomes of your test.
Complete your consent form and we will book a 30-min call with our specialist.
Get your kit, collect sample with swab, package, sent and receive your results online.
A simple, low-cost option with flexible scheduling. For many patients, this is the quickest and most practical way to complete the test.
Genetic testing looks at your DNA to find changes or variants in your genes. These changes can tell us if you’re at risk for certain inherited conditions, like hereditary cancers or if you’re a carrier for a genetic condition.
It can reveal if you have a higher genetic risk for certain cancers (like breast, ovarian or bowel), if you’re a carrier for inherited conditions, or if you have a genetic condition that could impact your health or your family’s.
It’s simple — you speak with one of our expert Genetic Counsellors, receive a home kit in the post, collect a cheek swab, and send it back. Your DNA is analysed in a UK or US lab, and results are ready in under 4 weeks.
Yes. At Jeen Health, your data is encrypted and stored securely on our GDPR compliant servers, as well as with our vetted laboratories. Your results are only shared with you and your dedicated Genetic Counsellor, never with insurers or third parties.
Our team of expert Genetic Counsellors is here to help. Whether you're curious about testing, your results, or what’s right for you — we're just a message away.
