Sorry if that's not the right place for such a thread. I'm thinking about getting a genetic test done, because I'm very curious of my ancestors and where they came from. I'm a Balkan dude so it would be nice if the results are more detailed and are not something like "Congrats you are South Eastern European". Here are my questions :

What test do you recommend me to do? Are there any Balkan dudes/dudettes who did a test and are happy with the details presented by X company?

Will that test show me my Y-DNA haplogroups or I should do a different one for those?

I saw that X company also offers a package that includes health information. Is that package worth it?

Get 23andme. It will show you your haplogroups and ancestry composition. You can then later download the raw data and use it in different ways. For example, Gedmatch calculators.
