I got my 23 and-me-results , but as some of you know girls don't have Y gene to be analyzed so we don't recieve Y-DNA results.
My father is dead and I have no brothers however I do have my uncle (my dad's brother) and a male cousin (thou he's the son of my dad's sister)....my question: is there any way I can still get my Y-DNA results though any of them?

PS: Sorry if this has been already discussed here, I havent found any info about it yet.

Yes, ask your uncle.

The cousin will not work naturally, you get it from your father.

If you have a male first cousin who is the son of your father's brother, then he will have the same Y-chromosome haplogroup as had your father, and your paternal grandfather. If you do not have access to a sample from a male relative who is a direct descendant (through the male line) of your own paternal line, then you can obtain some information about your paternal ancestors by an autosomal analysis.
