In a recent Instagram story, Usman Mukhtar provided clarity on why his character, Dr. Numair, opted for a DNA test rather than repeating a fertility test. Mukhtar explained that a fertility test primarily evaluates parameters like sperm count, motility, and morphology to determine the likelihood of fathering a child, but it cannot definitively prove paternity. Although such tests indicate fertility levels, they don’t confirm a biological relationship with an existing child. A DNA test, however, offers over 99.9% accuracy in establishing a genetic connection between a parent and child, making it far more conclusive in situations where paternity is questioned. By choosing a DNA test, Dr. Numair sought a direct answer about his biological link to the child, something a fertility test couldn’t provide. Mukhtar’s explanation highlights how the choice reflects Dr. Numair’s need for certainty and underscores the precision of a DNA test in confirming paternity.
