Prenatal Gender DNA Testing in Australia with GenderDX.

Our Sydney, Australia-based laboratory uses the latest GenderDX Prenatal DNA Testing technology to determine the gender of your baby as little as SEVEN WEEKS after conception using a simple, completely painless home DNA test kit. No doctor or prescription required, no painful blood collection or finger pricks, and laboratory testing in as little as 48 hours!

Accurate

Our GenderDX early gender test uses exquisitely sensitive DNA detection technology designed for extreme accuracy in gender determination. More than 50 studies have been published to date in peer-reviewed medical journals demonstrating the accuracy of this type of non-invasive prenatal DNA detection, repeatedly showing gender testing accuracy above 99% using maternal plasma. These results have been replicated among the thousands of women that have taken our GenderDX text over the past decade. In fact, we are so confident about the accuracy of our test, all results come with a full money-back guarantee.

Early

The test provides accurate results as little as seven weeks after conception (nine weeks from the last menstrual period), and for the duration of the pregnancy. This is possible since foetal DNA is detectable in maternal blood at as little as 5 weeks gestation, and steadily increases throughout pregnancy. We require the minimum gestational age to be 7 weeks to ensure accuracy. (This does mean that the later in pregnancy that you take the test, the higher accuracy it will have, however since at 7 weeks the test is already greater than 99% accurate the increase will be small.) To ensure you have the test kit ready on the day you require it we recommend you order early.

Easy

We have teamed up with SeventhSense Biosystems to bring their revolutionary TAP painless blood collection technology to our home testing kits. No needles, painful blood collection or finger pricks are required – simply attach the TAP device to your upper arm and press the button, and using microfluidics technology it will automatically draw a small blood sample from just under the skin via microchannels in the device. Then just mail back it to us for DNA analysis, and the results are automatically emailed to you. Easy!

How does our Prenatal Gender DNA Test work?

It has been known for decades that even from the earliest stages of pregnancy small amounts of DNA from an unborn fetus are able to find their way into the mothers bloodstream. Using a small amount of the mothers blood collected by our unique, painless collection device and exquisitely sensitive DNA detection techniques, we are able to determine whether any of the foetal DNA is derived from the Y chromosome - a DNA region that is only present in males. If this DNA can be detected in the mothers blood, then she must be carrying a male child. If there is no male DNA present, the child must be female. The techniques used are extremely accurate, with one recent large-scale scientific study which investigated non-invasive fetal sex prediction on thousands of pregnant women finding that it had a >99% accuracy rate.

We are so confident of the accuracy of this test, that we provide a full money-back guarantee in the event of a false result.

Prenatal gender DNA testing in 3 easy steps.

 

1) Order your home testing kit online, then painlessly collect your blood sample.

Simply place your order online via our Ordering Page and we will ship a home testing kit to you the next business day. Once received, use our revolutionary microfluidics-based TAP device to painlessly collect a small sample of the mothers blood by attaching it for a few minutes to the upper arm. Full easy-to-follow instructions are included in your home testing kit.

2) Mail in your sample and we perform DNA analysis.

Mail your blood sample to the GenderDX laboratories by regular post. The blood collection tube contains a special DNA preservative so no special shipping or storage conditions are required. Once we’ve received it, foetal DNA is extracted from the maternal plasma and the sex chromosomes are detected.

3) Results are immediately emailed.

Once testing is complete, the DNA test results specifying the gender of your baby are immediately emailed to you. Easy!
