Show Notes:
Your cousin just tested positive for the BRCA gene, your aunt keeps talking about cancer running in the family, and now you're wondering: what does this mean for me? Dr. Bayo sits down with genetic counselor Dena Goldberg to help you make sense of it all.
Dena breaks down when those 23andMe results matter, how to bring up genetic testing with your doctor without sounding crazy, and what to do when family health stories start keeping you up at night. She's been through fertility struggles and chronic illness herself, so she gets the real emotions behind these conversations.
Key Takeaways:
● What genetic counseling is (and why it's different from just getting tested)
● How to talk to your doctor about genetic testing without feeling awkward
● When you need more than a consumer DNA test
● Dealing with the "what if" anxiety around genetic testing
● Whether insurance covers genetic counseling
