# What changes if I update my essential information after my report has been generated?

Changing your name only affects how your name appears on the report. Changing your date of birth can affect the interpretation of the glycan indexes and associated risk context, and changing your sex can affect the baseline used for comparison. If any of these details are wrong, please contact us at support@glycanage.com so we can review whether your report needs to be updated.
