Yes, this is recommended. Even if you believe you know your family health history, your genes can provide a deeper understanding of your specific genetic risks and those that may run in your family.
It is possible to have an increased genetic risk for a condition even if none of your family members have experienced any symptoms of that condition. It is also possible that some genetic diseases run in your family, but your family members have not been aware of them until now.
If I don’t have a family history of any genetic conditions, should I upgrade to receive health reports?
