Discover your genetic insight and take proactive steps for your future health.
The Genetic Breast and Ovarian Cancer Risk Test analyses inherited mutations that significantly raise the risk of developing breast, ovarian, and other related cancers.
It’s a powerful tool for individuals with a personal or family history of cancer—or for those simply seeking clarity and peace of mind.

Why get tested
Up to 10–15% of breast and ovarian cancers are linked to inherited genetic mutations. If there’s a history of breast, ovarian, prostate, or pancreatic cancers in your family—especially with early onset or affecting multiple relatives—this test offers important answers.
Understanding your genetic risk allows you and your healthcare provider to:
- Plan personalised screening and surveillance strategies.
- Consider risk-reducing options like medications or preventative surgery.
- Inform relatives who may also carry a higher inherited risk.
- Make empowered decisions about family planning, wellness, and care.
This isn’t about fear—it’s about foresight. With one test, you gain clarity, confidence, and control over your health story.
What we test
This test screens for pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in high-impact genes associated with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndromes:
| Gene | Associated Risks |
|---|---|
| ATM | Involved in DNA repair; variants increase risk for breast cancer. |
| BRCA1 | Strongly linked to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer; may also increase prostate and pancreatic cancer risk. |
| BRCA2 | Associated with hereditary breast (including male breast cancer), ovarian, and pancreatic cancers. |
| CDH1 | Mutations increase risk for hereditary lobular breast cancer and gastric cancer. |
| CHEK2 | Involved in DNA checkpoint regulation; variants modestly raise breast cancer risk. |
| PALB2 | Partner gene of BRCA2; linked to increased breast and possibly ovarian cancer risk. |
| PTEN | Tumor suppressor gene; mutations can cause Cowden syndrome, which raises breast, thyroid, and endometrial cancer risk. |
| TP53 | Critical for DNA damage control; associated with Li-Fraumeni syndrome and multiple early-onset cancers, including breast cancer. |
