If you haven’t received your postal test kit within the delivery times stated at checkout or your order confirmation (accounting for working days and the time and date that you placed your order), then please get in touch using our contact us page or call us on the number provided towards the top of the site.

As each test has their own unique properties and the sample required in order to perform the test can differ, please refer to the expiry date on the collection vessel within your postal test kit.

Once the sample has been collected it needs to be shipped within 24 – 48 hours – the streck tubes contain anti coagulation liquid contained within which helps to preserve the sample on its journey to the lab.

All samples are shipped via DHL who do not work over the weekends – for that reason we recommend that samples are not collected and shipped on a Friday as this increases the risk of a redraw being required.

We’ve partnered with some of the best and most prestigious laboratories in the world, accredited to ISO standards – with the most advanced and proven technology available in the market. So much so, that our partners are also trusted to carry out testing on behalf of the NHS.

Please refer to individual tests for accuracy rates.

Please refer to the information on the test you are purchasing for specific turnaround times.

The more comprehensive the test is the longer the turnaround time will be.

As this is a scientific process, in certain cases this process will be longer. The data from the laboratory test is entered into the analysis software and an easy to interpret result report is generated for you to discuss with your healthcare professional.

^{* Blood samples collected over the weekend will be despatched to the laboratory on the next working day.}

We are only able to deliver the results to the client that we have taken the blood sample from and named on the consent form.

No Result: Very occasionally there is insufficient DNA in the sample to obtain a result. In these cases we will need to request another sample thus delaying the results.

If you get a “high risk” result for an NIPT Test you will need to contact your consultant or midwife.

All high-risk results should be confirmed by a follow-up invasive procedure, such as amniocentesis or Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) which your Healthcare Provider will arrange on your behalf.

The test providers that we work with also provide over the phone Genetic Counselling for all the tests (including NIPT) in the event of a high risk result.

Please note that before our test providers can begin to process your selected test, you will need to provide the date that the egg was harvested and the age of the egg donor at that time.
