The starting point: How do you know you've understood the results correctly?

Many of us have had the experience of reading a specialized medical report. Several pages of information, charts, Latin terms. We think we understand everything. But a few days later, a question arises in our minds. Then a second question. Then doubt. "Did I understand this recommendation correctly?" "Should I discuss this finding with my doctor or not?" "If two recommendations conflict, which one should I implement first?"

The PharOmics genetic report is written clearly – but "clear" does not mean "does not require expert interpretation." The specialized genetic counseling session is the point where "information" transforms into "decision." Not an hour of genetics education, not a dry reading of the report – a live question-and-answer session with a specialist who knows what you need to understand. 

What questions does this session answer that the report itself does not? 

  1. Which recommendation should I implement first?

The report tells you: "Your child's vitamin D metabolism is slow," "they have a genetic predisposition to eczema," and "their response to the BCG vaccine is predicted to be abnormal." These three recommendations require three different actions: adjusting the dosage of vitamin D drops, changing the skin care routine, and alerting the doctor before vaccination. Which one should you do today? Which one can wait until next week? The counseling session clarifies the priorities for you.

 

  1. What should I tell my doctor and what should I not?

Not all doctors are familiar with clinical genetics. If you show them all the pages of the report, they may become overwhelmed with information and miss the main point. If you don't mention something, you might miss an important opportunity. The PharOmics counselor tells you: "Show these two pages to the gastroenterology specialist, this one page to the cardiologist, and keep this section for your own awareness for now." 

  1. If two recommendations conflict, what should I do?

For example, the report says: "Taking probiotics is beneficial for strengthening your child's immune system," and also "Your child has a genetic predisposition to histamine intolerance – some probiotics contain histamine." Which probiotic should you choose? The PharOmics counselor takes a systemic view of all the findings, identifies conflicts, and recommends appropriate alternatives.

 

  1. Should I be worried?

The most important question that comes to mind after receiving any medical report. The PharOmics counselor tells you which findings "require immediate intervention," which are "manageable," and which are "recorded for awareness only and are not a cause for concern."

 

What this session is not 

- It is not genetics education.

You are not expected to learn genetic terminology in this session. You are expected to move beyond the terminology and arrive at "practical action."

- It is not a medical appointment.

The PharOmics counselor does not replace a medical specialist. But they help you know which specialist to consult, what questions to ask them, and what documents to show them.

- It is not a reading of the report out loud.

If you expect the counselor to read the report to you line by line, this session is not for you. This session is for those who have read the report themselves and now have questions.

 

 

Who needs this session more than others? 

Parents who have received their child's report and do not know "where to start." 

Among dozens of recommendations in the areas of nutrition, vaccination, skin care, and talent discovery, you do not know which is a priority. The counseling session provides you with a personalized roadmap. 

Users who intend to share the results with their doctor. 

The counseling session teaches you how to summarize the results, which pages to show the doctor, and what questions to ask them. This preparation makes the doctor's visit more effective. 

Individuals who have purchased more than one package.

A buyer of the "Golden Newborn," "Baby's Sleep-Wake Rhythm," and "Child's Immunity Shield" packages receives three separate reports that are collected in a single dashboard. But what is the connection between the findings of these three reports? The counseling session reveals these connections.

PharOmics Plus users whose reports have been updated.

Whenever your report is updated based on new scientific discoveries, you receive a short counseling session (15 minutes) to interpret the new changes. "You didn't have this variant last year, but this year, based on a newly published article, it has been determined that you are a carrier of this variant and you need to take the following action."

 

How is the counseling session conducted? 

- Online (video or phone) – from anywhere in the world. You only need an internet connection. PharOmics counselors, with their knowledge of the demographic context of Iran and the Middle East, understand the genetic differences specific to this region.

- In-person – for those who prefer to speak with a specialist face to face.

Session duration: 30 to 45 minutes for the initial consultation (after receiving the report). 15 minutes for PharOmics Plus update sessions.

 

Who conducts the counseling?

The PharOmics counseling team consists of specialists in medical genetics, nutrition, psychology, and healthy lifestyle – under the supervision of the Department of Medical Genetics at Tehran University of Medical Sciences.

  

Advantage of PharOmics counseling over similar services from international competitors 

A review of global platforms such as 23andMe, Nebula Genomics, and GeneMatters reveals the following: 

  1. Live counseling versus email support.

Competitors typically offer online support (chat or email), where answering complex questions in this format is difficult. Some, like GeneMatters, offer specialized counseling but charge a separate and high fee ($50 to $200 per session). PharOmics provides post-test counseling for all package purchasers free of charge. 

  1. Understanding the demographic context of the Middle East.

Foreign counselors are familiar with European databases, not the population of Iran and the Middle East. The frequency of certain variants in this region differs fundamentally from Europe. PharOmics counselors understand this difference and tailor their interpretation accordingly. 

III. Focus on "prioritization."

Many foreign genetic counseling services merely provide "scientific interpretation" – "this variant means such and such." But they rarely answer the questions "Now that you know this, what should you do?" and "Which should you do first?" PharOmics counselors fill this gap. 

  1. Continuing the journey with PharOmics Plus.

Users who have activated PharOmics Plus receive a free 15-minute counseling session every 6 months to review the new updates to their report. This model of "ongoing genetic care" does not exist in any international platform in this form.
 

Summary: What awareness do you gain from this session? 

- Prioritization of recommendations – you know what to do today, what can be postponed until next week, and what to keep for your own awareness only

- Preparation for the doctor's visit – you know what questions to ask, which pages of the report to show them, and what to expect from them

- Answers to the question "Should I be worried?" – you know which findings are serious, which are manageable, and which are merely peripheral information

- And above all, "an end to confusion" – you are no longer lost among dozens of pages of information. A specialist has shown you the way

Imagine you visit a large library. The library has thousands of specialized books. The librarian tells you: "Go ahead, choose any book you want." If you are a cardiologist, you know which book to pick. But if you are a young mother worried about your newborn's health, or a teenager stressed about university entrance exams, or a middle-aged person recently diagnosed with diabetes, or even a completely healthy individual who wants to know what talents they possess – how would you know which of those thousands of books is essential for you? Which one is the "best"? Which one is "sufficient"? Should you read them all? Or try to figure it out yourself?
PharOmics has transformed the library into a "targeted educational course." Instead of laying out a vast array of specialized reports on the table and saying "choose for yourself," we present them in the form of "pre-designed packages." Each package is designed to address a specific "need." Sometimes this need is "solving an existing challenge": for example, a baby with feeding difficulties, a teenager suffering from severe acne, or a middle-aged person with a family history of diabetes. Sometimes this need is "preventing a potential challenge": for example, early detection of Alzheimer's or osteoporosis risk. And sometimes this need is "improving quality of life and unlocking talents": for example, discovering the best sport for a gifted child, or the best career path for a young adult.
But beyond all this, PharOmics' packaging is a "forward-looking action." The world of tomorrow – the age of artificial intelligence, advanced robotics, and personalized medicine – will be heavily dependent on fundamental, reliable genomic data. Countries like the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Estonia, Japan, and South Korea have launched national genome programs. Artificial intelligence needs your "genomic ID card" to provide you with accurate recommendations. Those who possess this data today will be first-class citizens of that world. PharOmics packages are your ticket to that future.
Packaging means: transforming scattered specialties into a practical roadmap for today and a strategic asset for tomorrow. You don't need to understand genetics. You only need to know what "need" is a priority in your life or your family's life today – whether that need is solving a problem, preventing a risk, unlocking a talent, or preparing for a world that has already begun to emerge. PharOmics provides the package tailored to that specific need.

Yes, this is the core of the PharOmics philosophy. Humans face different "needs" at every stage of life. Sometimes these needs are about "challenges and problems," sometimes about "prevention," and sometimes about "improvement and enhancement." And in all these cases, there is also a layer of "preparation for the future."
For newborns, the need might be "screening for hidden hereditary diseases" (solving a challenge) or "identifying the best nutrition pattern for optimal growth" (enhancement). For children and adolescents, the need might be "managing acne and puberty" (solving a challenge) or "discovering athletic, artistic, and academic talents" (unlocking potential and enhancement). For young adults on the threshold of marriage and childbearing, the need might be "carrier screening for genetic diseases" (preventing a major challenge) or "assessing genetic and personality compatibility" (improving relationship quality). For middle-aged individuals, the need might be "managing diabetes and blood pressure" (solving an existing challenge), "preventing Alzheimer's and osteoporosis" (preventing future challenges), or "improving athletic performance and fitness" (enhancement). For the elderly, the need might be "managing multiple concurrent medications" (solving a challenge), "maintaining independence and quality of life" (preventing decline), or "passing on a genetic legacy to the next generation" (enhancement and forward-thinking).
At all these stages, one truth remains constant: The world of tomorrow will be fundamentally different from today. Artificial intelligence, advanced robotics, and personalized medicine are not "distant future inventions" but "near realities." Personalized health and well-being services will be powered by the analysis of your genomic data. Those who have this data today will benefit from more advanced, accurate, and intelligent services tomorrow. PharOmics prepares you for that world, while also addressing your needs today.
PharOmics has mapped all these critical stages and their diverse needs and designed specific packages for each stage. At any stage of life, you can choose the package that suits your "need of the moment" – whether solving a problem, prevention, enhancement, or preparing for the future. This means PharOmics is not just a "therapeutic service" or a "preventive service," but a "lifelong companion" for your "best version" in an "emerging world."

Three key advantages demonstrate the fundamental difference between "buying a package" and "ordering several separate reports."

First advantage: a systemic, integrated view instead of an isolated view. When you order several separate reports, you receive several isolated pieces of information: one report on drug metabolism, one report on heart health, one report on nutrition. But these pieces are placed separately in different files. You yourself have to sit down and try to find the connections between them. But a package brings these pieces together and interprets them in an integrated manner. For example, in the "Heart Health" package, the pharmacogenetics report, the blood lipid report, and the blood pressure report are placed together and tell you: "Based on your genetic variant, drug A is ineffective for you, diet B is suitable for you, and the best exercise for you is C." This "systemic view" is the biggest advantage of packaging, and you will never achieve it with separate orders.
Second advantage: saving time, money, and confusion. Selecting several separate reports from a multitude of options is time-consuming. The final cost of ordering each report separately is far higher than buying a single combined package. And more importantly, as a non-expert user, you might become confused: "Do I need these two reports together? Do I need a third report as well?" Packaging eliminates this confusion. We tell you: "For your need, this combination is sufficient and complete."
Third advantage: harmonized interpretation that goes beyond the simple sum of parts, with a future perspective. In a package, results are not just placed together but are interpreted in a "cross-cutting" and "harmonized" manner. That is, you see the connection between your child's athletic talent, their muscle recovery type, and their risk of potential injuries – and based on that, you receive a personalized training program for today and a roadmap for their future growth and development. This is something you will never get from reading three separate reports. The value of a package is "greater than the sum of its constituent reports," especially when it comes to "preparing for a world moving towards artificial intelligence and advanced services." The genomic data you collect today will be the fuel for artificial intelligence algorithms that will recommend the best life decisions for you tomorrow. PharOmics packages provide you with this data in a structured manner, ready for the future.

To answer this question, we need to consider the two main applications of packages together: "solving existing challenges" and "improving quality of life and forward-thinking." And alongside them, "preparation for the future world" as an independent layer of added value.
A simple report tells you: "You have the CYP2C19*2 variant. This variant is associated with poor metabolism of some drugs." Or "You have the ACTN3 variant. This variant is associated with power-based athletic performance." These are raw data. They are correct. They are useful. But now what? What can you actually do with this information? If you are a patient, what decision do you make? If you are healthy, how do you improve your life?
A PharOmics package – which includes several reports together – gives you the practical answer.

Let us clarify this difference with two examples.
First example – solving an existing challenge: Suppose you are a middle-aged person with a family history of heart attack, and you yourself also have high blood pressure and high blood lipids. A simple pharmacogenetics report tells you that you have certain variants in the metabolism of some drugs. But the PharOmics "Heart Health" package, which includes pharmacogenetics, blood lipid profile, blood pressure profile, and nutrition, tells you: "Because you have the CYP2C19*2 variant, the drug clopidogrel will be ineffective for you and should not be prescribed. Your doctor should choose ticagrelor or prasugrel instead. Based on your blood lipid and blood pressure profile, the best diet for you is the Mediterranean diet with limited saturated fats. The best exercise for you is brisk walking for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. And due to your genetic predisposition to type 2 diabetes, you should have your fasting blood sugar checked every 6 months." This is a "practical action plan," not raw data. Second example – enhancement and forward-thinking: Suppose a healthy baby is born. They have no specific problems. The parents simply want to give them the "best start in life." The "Child's DNA ID Card" package tells them: "Your baby is not a carrier of phenylketonuria, but has a vitamin D deficiency and poor iron absorption. Their supplementation plan should include higher dose vitamin D and iron from the sixth month. Their genetic talent leans towards power sports, and in the future they are likely to succeed in sprinting or gymnastics. Also, their caffeine metabolism is slow – keep this in mind during adolescence and young adulthood when consuming energy drinks." This is an "18-year roadmap" for the parents. This is not "treating a disease," nor is it "preventing an imminent risk." This is "improving quality of life and preparing for the future." bBut the real added value of a package goes beyond these two examples. The world is rapidly moving towards a point where major life decisions – from career and academic path choices to health and insurance plans – will be made relying on artificial intelligence algorithms and genomic data analysis. Leading countries of the world today have launched national genome programs. In the near future, having a "genomic ID card" will become as important as having a "national ID code." PharOmics packages put this ID card in your hands today. By purchasing a package, you are not just addressing a need of today; you are "declaring your readiness for the intelligent world of tomorrow."

The real added value of a package is summarized in five points:
First, transforming data into a practical clinical decision or an enhancement action plan. With a package, you receive a "personalized lifestyle guide."
Second, discovering hidden connections between different areas of health and talent. These connections can only be identified through an integrated, combined view.
Third, access to the complete PharOmics ecosystem for continuing the journey. By purchasing a package, you gain access to the smart MY PharOmics dashboard and subsequent services.
Fourth, becoming a "first-class citizen of the advanced modern world."
Fifth, "preparation for a world that has already begun to emerge" – the age of artificial intelligence, advanced robotics, and personalized medicine.

We will examine this question from three angles: flexibility in viewing results, future upgrades, and global access. And alongside them, we will also clarify the "forward-looking added value" of these capabilities. Regarding viewing individual reports: Yes. The package does not confine you in a "black box." We give you both the "macro view" and the "power to analyze details." After purchasing any package, all the specialized reports that constitute it are also individually accessible within the MY PharOmics dashboard. You can study each report separately, examine the clinical details of each variant, and access direct links to authoritative global resources like ClinVar, PharmGKB, and PubMed. If you are a medical specialist, you can access the raw data. If you are a parent of a newborn, you can read the same data in simple language on the integrated dashboard. The package does not restrict your budget; rather, it gives you a more comprehensive view while preserving the ability to focus on the details of each specialized area.
Regarding upgrading to a larger package in the future: Your genomic data is extracted once and remains in your record for life. At any stage of life – for example, when moving from infancy to childhood, or when a new disease is diagnosed, or when you simply decide to expand your knowledge into a new area of genomics – you can complete your current package with other specialized reports or upgrade to a more comprehensive package.
Key point: For an upgrade, there is no need for re-sampling. No need to pay again for duplicate sections. You only pay for the new reports added to the previous package. This means your initial investment is preserved and accompanies you throughout your life. And this investment becomes more valuable each year. Because as genetics and artificial intelligence advance, your genomic data gains new interpretive capabilities. By possessing this data, you are always one step ahead of those who have not yet entered this era.
Regarding access and language: MY PharOmics is a multilingual dashboard – Persian, English, Arabic. You can use your results in any country where you live, travel, or migrate. Clinical interpretations, practical recommendations, and subsequent PharOmics support are not limited to one specific country or language. Our support team is ready to assist in various languages. You are a global citizen, PharOmics is with you – whether you live in Tehran, Dubai, London, or Tokyo. And in a world where artificial intelligence is eliminating linguistic and geographical borders, having a digital genomic record accessible from anywhere in the world is an undeniable competitive advantage.

Regarding the biobank and future updates (Important): By activating PharOmics Plus (an optional, separate subscription), you upgrade from "buying a product" to "membership in a living, evolving ecosystem." Your DNA sample is stored in the PharOmics Biobank. This enables:

  • Automatic updates: As genetic science advances and new variants are discovered; your reports are automatically updated. You never need to pay again or provide another sample. You always have the "most up-to-date" information. In an era where genetic knowledge leaps every month, this capability is a "superpower."
  • Future genetic alerts: If a new variant is discovered in your genome in the future that has clinical significance (for example, linking a gene to a new disease, or discovering a new talent associated with a specific gene), PharOmics will notify you. You become aware of scientific advances related to "your own genome." This means you move forward at the speed of science, not behind it.
  • Priority in clinical research and emerging technologies: If a clinical trial relevant to your genotype exists, or a new technology in health robotics or diagnostic artificial intelligence based on genomic data emerges, as a Biobank member, you will have priority access and invitation. You can contribute to the advancement of science and technology while simultaneously benefiting from its achievements.

We emphasize: Automatic updates and data storage in the Biobank are part of the PharOmics Plus service and are not included in the basic package. This transparency allows you to decide based on your needs and budget. The basic package is designed for those who only need "current" results. PharOmics Plus is designed for those who wish to preserve their investment for the future and benefit from lifelong scientific and technological updates – those who want to be first-class citizens of the advanced modern world of tomorrow. The choice is yours.
