Jess & Tarin’s 23andMe Stories

At our latest stop on the Tour de'23, we had the opportunity to hear Jess and Tarin's story. Through a shared discovery that they both had factor V Leiden, a genetic variant that can increase the risk for harmful blood clots, both of these amazing women were empowered to proactively manage their health, armed with the knowledge of their unique genetic risks. Learn how their chance meeting on a beach in St. Martin has resulted in shared advocacy and education about this little-known genetic variant that can increase the risk for potentially life-threatening blood clots.
