Description

About this DNA Analysis Test

An increased lifetime exposure to oestrogen, and unbalanced oestrogen metabolism, is a strong risk factor in the development of breast, ovarian and prostate cancer, as well as oestrogen dominant disorders.
The report provides an analysis of the genes involved in the process of oestrogen metabolism, and details appropriate diet, nutraceutical, and lifestyle recommendations to optimises this process.

Ideal For:

The DNA Oestrogen test is suitable for women and men who suffer from oestrogen-dominant conditions and who have higher lifetime exposure to oestrogens such as HRT and oestrogen-based contraceptives, oestrogen metabolites and other carcinogens.

In addition, the test can be highly beneficial for:

• Women or men with a strong family history of breast, ovarian, colon or prostate cancer
• Women who suffer from oestrogen-dominant conditions such as endometriosis, premenstrual syndrome, and uterine fibroid tumours
• Women considering oral contraceptives, hormone replacement therapy or bio-identical hormone supplementation
• Women who are considering in vitro fertilisation or who have been diagnosed with oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancer

Test Results

Approximately 80% of breast cancer occurs in women with little, to no family history. Research has shown that an increased lifetime exposure to oestrogen, and unbalanced oestrogen metabolism, is a strong risk factor in the development of breast, ovarian and prostate cancer, as well as oestrogen dominant disorders, such as endometriosis and premenstrual syndrome.

The report provides an analysis of the genes involved in the process of oestrogen metabolism, and details appropriate diet, nutraceutical, and lifestyle recommendations to optimises metabolism and assist in disease prevention.
