What each result means
A/A
Published research associates this genotype with typical/baseline likelihood of Plasma thyroid-stimulating hormone levels — no copies of the reported risk allele.
A/C
Published research associates this genotype (one copy of the reported risk allele) with an intermediate association with Plasma thyroid-stimulating hormone levels.
C/C
Published research associates this genotype (two copies of the reported risk allele) with a higher likelihood of Plasma thyroid-stimulating hormone levels compared to the general population.

Questions about rs9968300
What is rs9968300?
rs9968300 is a single position in the genome, in or near the NR3C2 gene. Published research associates it with plasma thyroid-stimulating hormone levels. A single variant does not decide an outcome — it shifts a probability, and for most common variants the shift is small.
Does having rs9968300 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 rs9968300 come from?
GWAS Catalog, PLoS One 2017, PMID:28333968. Every variant on MyGeneLog comes from public primary sources and is published with its citation and the date it was checked.
