The Genogram solution is available to all ConceptDraw DIAGRAM users to get installed and used while working in the ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and drawing software.

Example 1: A Husband with Multiple Spouses

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the combination of libraries from the Genogram Solution. An experienced user spent 5 minutes creating this sample.

This Genogram sample illustrates a husband who had multiple wives during his life. It is based on the "A husband with multiple spouses" diagram accompanying the "Genogram Symbols" article on the website of the Modesto Junior College (USA). During his life, this man was married three times. In his first marriage, he had three children — two boys and one girl, where two of them (boy and girl) are twins. After a divorce from his first wife, this man got married again and has a daughter from his second marriage. At the moment, after a divorce from his second wife, he lives with his third wife, and there are no children in this marriage. This diagram uses common genogram symbols, such as a circle shape to indicate females — wives and daughters, and a square shape to represent the men of this family — the husband and his sons.

Example 2: A Wife with Multiple Husbands

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the combination of libraries from the Genogram Solution. An experienced user spent 5 minutes creating this sample.

This Genogram example demonstrates a wife with her multiple husbands — there were three of them. It was designed based on the diagram "A wife with multiple husbands" from the "Genogram Symbols" article published on the website of the Modesto Junior College (USA). From the first two marriages, the woman has four children — twins, a boy and a girl, and their older brother from the first marriage, and one child from the second marriage — a girl named a half-sister for children from the first marriage. The children from each marriage are placed separately in the diagram, the first three before the symbol indicating the first husband and another child before the designation of the second husband. As you can see from the diagram, there are no children in the third marriage. The genogram symbols for female and male gender are different and predefined, so easily recognizable and distinguishable by everyone.

Example 3: Child Links

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the combination of libraries from the Genogram Solution. An experienced user spent 5 minutes creating this sample.

This sample diagram represents the child links, child symbols, and special birth symbols. The diagram was designed based on the "Genogram symbols for child links and special birth" diagram accompanying the "Genogram Symbols" article on the website of the Modesto Junior College (USA). There are existing three types of children: biological child, adopted child, and foster child, and each of them has its own symbol in a standard genogram notation. All three symbols are represented on this diagram, along with symbols of pregnancy, miscarriage, abortion, male stillbirth and female stillbirth. When designing the family genogram, it is important to depict all children that were at this family in different generations, the information needs to be full to conduct the precise analysis, when it is necessary, and to make the correct conclusions, predictions, and maybe warnings. All of these symbols are available in ConceptDraw Genogram solution libraries and can be used to design professional Genograms and genealogy diagrams in a few moments.

Example 7: Medical Family Genogram

This diagram was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the combination of libraries from the Genogram Solution. An experienced user spent 15 minutes creating this sample.

This sample diagram was designed based on the "Sample Medical Family Tree" published on the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station website at the "Drawing a Family Tree" article. It represents the family tree of several generations and detailed medical information about the health state of family members and their substantial diseases leading to death, which can be genetic, hereditary, and can occur in future generations, among them the cancer, Alzheimer's disease, lymphoma, leukemia, heart attack, asthma, stroke, etc. If a person didn't have any serious diseases, the corresponding symbol on the genogram will not be colored. In the case of having any disease, the symbol will be with a certain color mark. The correspondence of the icons to the diseases is determined by the legend, so any symbol can be easily identified with the legend's help. Due to the similar genograms can be predicted the individuals' possible diseases and evaluated the health risks.
