What is Carrier Screening — Focused Panel?
Carrier screening checks whether you silently carry a gene variant for a recessive inherited condition — you'd show no symptoms yourself, but if your partner carries a variant in the same gene, each pregnancy has a real chance of the child being affected. This focused panel covers around 100 of the more common conditions. Best done before or early in pregnancy, ideally alongside your partner, so you have time to understand and act on the results.
Why is Carrier Screening — Focused Panel done?
- Checks whether you carry a changed copy of a gene linked to a serious recessive condition — usually without having any symptoms yourself.
- When both partners carry a change in the same gene, each pregnancy has a 1-in-4 chance of a child with that condition.
- Lets couples plan ahead — with prenatal testing, PGT or other options — before or early in pregnancy.
Who may be advised to take Carrier Screening — Focused Panel?
- Couples planning a pregnancy or in early pregnancy.
- Couples who are blood relatives (consanguineous marriage).
- People with a family history of a genetic condition.

Good to know
- Being a carrier does not mean you are, or will become, unwell.
- It is best done for both partners — one partner's result alone cannot give the couple's full picture.
- A negative result lowers but does not completely remove the chance of being a carrier, because no panel covers every variant.
