MyHealthscore
- Your chance over a lifetime of developing each condition we look at.
- Guidance on prevention and lifestyle, to go through with your doctor.
- A basic ancestry check, which makes your scores more accurate.
- You’re generally healthy and want a starting point
- You’d rather focus your check-ups where they’ll count than worry about everything
- There’s no striking pattern of early illness in your family
- A close relative had cancer or heart disease young. Then you want CancerRisk, CardioRisk or MyGeneticRisk. Those look for the specific inherited faults that run in families. MyHealthscore cannot find them.
Coronary artery disease
Atrial fibrillation
Lipid profile (triglycerides, LDL, HDL cholesterol)
Hypertension
Type 2 Diabetes
Breast Cancer
- Your risk level — higher, average or lower than most people — for heart artery disease, irregular heartbeat, cholesterol and triglycerides, blood pressure, type 2 diabetes and breast cancer
- General prevention guidance for each result, to go through with your doctor
- A version of the report written for your doctor
- Whether you will get any of these conditions. These are likelihoods, not diagnoses.
- Whether you carry an inherited fault like BRCA. That is a different kind of test.
- Your current cholesterol, blood pressure or blood sugar. A routine blood test measures those directly and you should still have one. This tells you about inherited tendency, not today’s numbers.

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.
