About 247GeneticCheck

247GeneticCheck is a free health information resource that answers one question for hundreds of medical conditions: is it genetic?

Our Data Sources

All heritability estimates, inheritance patterns, and gene associations are drawn from publicly available research via MedlinePlus Genetics, the CDC Genomics programme, and the National Institutes of Health.

Our Verdict System

• YES — Strong genetic cause; heritability >60%; often single-gene
• PARTIAL — Genetics is one factor; environment and lifestyle also contribute
• COMPLEX — Many genes, many environmental factors; no single determinant
• NO — Not primarily genetic in origin
