A paternity test at home is an effective method to confirm whether or not you are the biological father of a presumed child. If you have had an intimate affair with a woman, and she tells you that she is pregnant, but you have doubts about it, you can ask for a paternity test. This test consists of comparing the genetic information of the father and the child and seeing if there are any genetic similarities. This is an excellent method, especially for people who do not want to go through all the hassle of going to court. You can purchase a paternity test to do at home and take the samples yourself (preferably saliva). Then, you will have to send the samples back to the laboratory for analysis. The results are available quickly. But how do paternity tests work? How reliable are they? Why are they recommended?
