In today’s world, getting answers through DNA testing has never been easier. But not all situations call for open discussions or visible testing kits. Whether due to personal or emotional reasons, some families need a solution that prioritizes confidentiality. That’s where a discreet paternity test comes in.
At My Forever DNA, we understand that not every family dynamic is straightforward, and not every test can be conducted openly. We specialize in providing accurate, private DNA testing options that allow you to get the answers you need without compromising your privacy.
What Is a Discreet Paternity Test?
A discreet paternity test is a DNA test designed to determine a biological relationship between an alleged father and child, without using traditional cheek swabs or alerting all parties involved. These tests typically use alternative DNA samples, such as:
Accepted Discreet DNA Samples:
(Most accurate results come from samples with visible biological material.)
-
Toothbrush: Must be used at least 20-30 times
-
Used Tissues: Provide 1-2 used tissues (Kleenex) with visible mucus
-
Hair with root or follicle attached: Submit 25-50 strands of hair (Or send an entire hairbrush if easier)
-
Fingernails: Provide 5–10 freshly clipped fingernails or toenails
-
Earwax (Q-tips): Send 2–3 Q-tips with visible earwax
These items contain trace amounts of DNA that, when processed correctly in an accredited lab, can provide highly accurate results.
Why Choose a Discreet Paternity Test?
There are many reasons someone may opt for a discreet testing option:
-
Sensitive family dynamics
-
Prefer to get answers first, before having a difficult conversation or causing unnecessary family disputes.
-
Peace of mind before taking formal action
-
A partner unwilling to test directly
No matter the situation, the goal is to get accurate, trustworthy results without disrupting your life.
Is It Legal to Use a Discreet DNA Test?
It’s important to distinguish between informational and legal DNA tests.
A discreet paternity test using alternative samples is for personal knowledge only. These results are not court-admissible because they don’t follow a strict chain of custody. If you need proof for child support, custody, immigration, or other legal matters, a legally binding DNA test collected in a medical setting (like our Omaha office) is required.
For all other cases, a discreet option can offer clarity and direction, privately and effectively.
How Accurate Are Discreet Tests?
When discreet or alternative DNA samples are processed in a U.S.-based, AABB-accredited, and CAP-certified laboratory specializing in advanced forensic DNA testing, the results can be just as accurate as those from traditional cheek swabs.
At My Forever DNA, we
-
Test 24 or more DNA markers (many labs only test 16–21)
-
Use dual processing technology to verify every result.
-
If a person submits a discreet or alternative DNA sample instead of a standard cheek swab, results will be emailed within 5-7 business days after the samples arrive at our lab.

DISCLAIMER:
My Forever DNA cannot guarantee that alternative DNA samples will contain a sufficient amount of DNA for testing. The success of testing depends entirely on the quality and condition of the sample provided.
Once an alternative DNA sample (e.g., toothbrush, hair, etc.) is received, it will be sent to our forensic lab for viability testing. Please be aware:
-
The viability testing fee is non-refundable.
-
If the sample does not contain enough DNA, a new sample will be required at an additional cost. No refunds will be issued.
-
Every additional alternative DNA sample submitted for the same individual will incur a $100 fee.
If the sample contains sufficient viable DNA, you will be notified by email, and the sample will proceed to comparison testing. Final results will be emailed within 5-7 business days from the time the sample is confirmed viable.
