What happens to your data after the test

You took the DNA test. You got a basic report from the lab. Now what? Most people stop there. We show you why that's a mistake.

The Problem

Your lab only analyzes a fraction of your data

When you take a genetic test, the lab sequences hundreds of thousands of variants in your DNA. But the reports they deliver cover only a small portion of those variants — usually ancestry and a few basic traits.

The rest of your data sits locked in a raw file that most people never open. It's like having a 1,000-page book and only reading the table of contents.

Genetic portability

Your data is portable. Did you know that?

Every lab is legally required to make your raw data file available. This file works like a "genetic passport" — and it belongs to you.

The kind of things you discover

Information that has been hiding in your data all along.

💪

Muscle fiber type

Find out whether your body is genetically wired for explosive power (sprinting) or endurance (marathon) and tailor your training accordingly.

🧬

Hereditary cancer risk

Analysis of genes such as BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53, and others associated with hereditary cancer syndromes.

🥛

Lactose intolerance

Learn whether your body produces lactase in adulthood or whether your intolerance is genetic — not just a sensitivity.

💊

Caffeine metabolism

Does your body process caffeine quickly or slowly? This affects your sleep, performance, and even cardiovascular risk.

🩸

Hypertension predisposition

Identify genetic variants associated with high blood pressure and understand your individual risk before symptoms appear.

🧠

Exercise response

Does your body respond better to strength training or cardio? What training frequency maximizes your results?

Security

Your genetic data deserves maximum protection

Unlike many companies in the industry, helixXY does not sell, share, or use your genetic data for any purpose other than generating your personal reports.

End-to-end encryption

Your data is encrypted during upload, processing, and storage.

Right to erasure

You can request the complete deletion of your data at any time.

Zero sharing

Your data is never sold, shared, or used for research without your consent.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a new DNA test?

No. If you've already taken a test with any compatible lab, simply download your raw data file and upload it. The same file works forever.

What if I haven't taken a genetic test yet?

You can take a test with any partner lab (23andMe, Genera, Ancestry, etc.). The process is simple: they send you a kit, you collect a saliva sample at home and mail it back. Within a few weeks, your raw data will be available to download.

Do helixXY results replace a medical exam?

No. Our reports are informational and educational. They help you understand your genetic predispositions, but any medical decision should be discussed with a healthcare professional.

How long does it take to receive the reports?

After uploading your file, the analysis is completed in approximately 15 minutes. You get immediate access to all reports available for your genetic profile.

Ready to read the other 950 pages?

Your data already exists. helixXY only needs 15 minutes to turn it into knowledge.
