A male cancer risk check provides insights into your risk of certain cancers as well as your general health. The check is designed for people assigned male at birth who are aged 40-74. Our tests are designed to provide reassurance, so we do not recommend booking this package if you are younger than this due to the risk of false negative or positive results.
Your test results and other readings will each be given a ‘flag’ of a different colour: green, amber or red. Green results are within the recommended range for your age and sex; amber results are slightly outside what we'd normally expect; and red results are further outside the norm. Where a result is amber or red, we'll give follow-up advice on what to do next - whether that's making lifestyle changes, simply monitoring the result, or visiting your doctor for further investigation. If there are any critical results discovered by our laboratory, we will contact you immediately, so you won’t need to wait for your full Results Report to arrive to take appropriate action.
