India, Oct. 26 -- Genetic counselling is a process that helps people understand how inherited conditions might affect them or their families. During a genetic counselling session, a trained genetic counsellor collects detailed information about the person's medical background and family history. This helps identify patterns that may suggest a genetic condition. The counsellor explains how genes work, how certain diseases are passed down, and discusses the chances of developing or passing on a condition. They also talk about available genetic tests, their benefits, risks, and possible outcomes. If testing is done, the counsellor interprets the results and explains what they mean for the person's health, treatment, or family planning. In addition to medical guidance, genetic counsellors provide emotional support, helping individuals and families cope with difficult information or decisions. Overall, genetic counselling helps people make informed and confident choices about their health and future based on scientific understanding and compassionate care....
