Who Should Consider Genetic Testing for BRCA2 Mutations?
Genetic testing for BRCA2 mutations is recommended for individuals with a strong family history of breast, ovarian, or other BRCA2-associated cancers. Additionally, individuals who have been diagnosed with these cancers at a young age or have multiple family members affected by these cancers should consider testing. Genetic counseling is essential before and after testing to understand the implications of the results.
