MyGeneticRisk
- We read the part of your code that carries instructions, and interpret 162 genes in detail.
- Your data is stored securely, so it can be looked at again as science advances.
- The option to extend the analysis to more genes later, from the same sample.
- A session with a clinical geneticist on request, charged separately.
- Your full report within 8 weeks.
- You have both cancer and heart disease in the family
- You don’t know your family medical history, because you were adopted, lost touch, or nobody talked about it
- You want the widest check for inherited conditions without going to a full genome
- Only one of the two runs in your family. CardioRisk or CancerRisk alone is EGP 60,000.
- You are mainly worried about how your medicines work. That is MyPharma.

- Everything CardioRisk and CancerRisk give you, from one sample and in one report
- A single screening plan covering both areas, rather than two you have to reconcile
- The option to extend the analysis to more genes later, from the same sample
- The option of a session with a clinical geneticist to go through all of it, charged separately
- That you have no inherited risk. If we find nothing, it means we found no known fault in the genes we check. Some families have a cause that science cannot yet identify. If cancer or heart problems run in your family, keep following the plan your doctor has set based on that history.
- Whether you will develop cancer or a heart problem. A fault raises your risk without making it certain, and most illness is not inherited.
- Sometimes we find a gene change that nobody yet knows how to interpret. Your counsellor will explain what happens next.
- What you give Saliva No needles, no fasting, nothing to prepare

- Genetic counselling Free before, extra after Our call centre helps you choose at no cost. A session with a clinical geneticist after your results is charged separately.
- Collection Collected in 48–72 hours A nurse comes to you, or use a partner clinic. Results follow in 6 to 8 weeks.
Your health journey made simple
Five steps, from ordering to understanding your results.
Choose your test
Order online from anywhere in Egypt. No doctor’s referral needed. Not sure which one? Our call centre team will help you choose, free.
Book collection
A nurse comes to you at home, usually within 48 to 72 hours. Or give your sample at a partner clinic.
Give your sample
Saliva. A few minutes, no needles, and nothing to prepare beforehand.
The lab works
6 to 8 weeks. Every finding is reviewed by a geneticist against clinical databases before it reaches your report. That review is why it takes weeks, not days.
Results explained
A report in plain language, plus a version for your doctor. A session with a clinical geneticist is available separately.
Questions people ask before buying
What if the result is bad news?
You are never left alone with a result. A clinical geneticist can go through it with you and explain what it means in your situation, and for most findings there is something concrete to do next — earlier screening, closer monitoring, a change to a treatment plan, or knowing which relatives should be tested. Some results carry no action, and we will tell you that plainly rather than dress it up.
Do I need a doctor to order this?
No. You can order any of our tests yourself, without a referral. If you would rather start with a clinic, we work with partner clinics in several locations and can point you to one.
Is genetic counselling included in the price?
Before you buy, yes — our call centre team has a medical background and will help you understand the tests and choose the right one, free of charge. After your results, a session with a clinical geneticist is available and is charged separately from the test.
What sample do you take?
Saliva. It takes a few minutes, there are no needles, and you do not need to fast or prepare in any way.
How long does the whole thing take?
Collection is usually arranged within 48 to 72 hours, either at your home or at a partner clinic. Results take 6 to 8 weeks from the moment the laboratory receives your sample, because every finding is reviewed by a geneticist against clinical databases before it reaches your report.
Can I test my children?
For conditions that only appear in adulthood, the answer is usually no — and that is a deliberate choice, not an unhelpful one. A result a child cannot act on, and did not consent to, is theirs to decide about when they are old enough. Testing a child does make sense when a condition appears in childhood, or when acting early changes the outcome. If you are weighing this up, talk to us first and we will walk through it with you.
