Notes

From SNPedia

You appear to be a carrier for the rs796856605 SNP, which is (far) more commonly known as the 185delAG BRCA1 mutation. Your lifetime risk of breast cancer for women is increased from ~13% to ~81% and risk of ovarian cancer is increased from less than ~2% to over 50%. This SNP may significantly increase the risk of prostate cancer in men. There is also a somewhat increased risk for breast cancer in men from this genotype. See additional discussion at rs796856605.
