DNA Hormones

(formerly DNA Oestrogen)

Key Advantages

test background

DNA Hormones has replaced the DNA Hormones test, now including 9 additional genes related to metabolism and detoxification of sex hormones. The DNA Hormones test analyses and reports on gene variants that have been shown to have an impact on sex steroid metabolism and synthesis, affecting male and female health.

Understanding sex hormone metabolism is of benefit to both men and women at risk of hormone related disorders, including endometriosis, premenstrual syndrome and uterine fibroids, benign prostatic hyperplasia or where there is a family history of hormone related cancer.

The report offers personalised diet, lifestyle and hormone interventions to support relevant pathways to help achieve and maintain optimal hormonal health and resilience and extended health span.

clinical value

Understanding an individual’s genetic variability will allow for targeted diet, lifestyle and hormone optimisation.The results provide unique information to guide personalised diet, lifestyle, hormone and nutraceutical recommendations.

The DNA Hormones report offers:
  1. Gene, and genotype-specific information that is evidence based and clinically relevant
  2. Impact of the gene variant on disease risk and how it affects enzyme function
  3. A comprehensive overview of sex hormone metabolism and detoxification pathways – personalised to the patient, based on their genotype
  4. Insights into the functioning of sex-hormone pathways based on genetic variation carried
DNA Hormones provides the genotype result of the client and, when there is a variant detected that leads to a change in how it may affect an individual’s hormone metabolism and health, a description of the relevance of the variant will be given. Actionable, genotype specific information to intervene appropriately is also given.
