What each result means
C/C
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Androgen levels — no copies of the reported risk allele. (GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2012, PMID:22936694)
C/T
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Androgen levels. (GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2012, PMID:22936694)
T/T
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Androgen levels compared to the general population. (GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2012, PMID:22936694)

Questions about rs72829446
What is rs72829446?
rs72829446 is a single position in the genome, in or near the SHBG gene. Published research associates it with androgen levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs72829446 mean I will get this?
No. Common variants like this one move a probability slightly and, on their own, rarely decide anything about one person. Nothing on this page is a diagnosis, and health decisions should be made with a clinician who can see your whole picture.
Where does the information about rs72829446 come from?
GWAS Catalog, Hum Mol Genet 2012, PMID:22936694. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
