UPCOMING EVENTS: GENETIC TESTS AND GUT MICROBIOME – 9 SEPTEMBER
MyEstrogens offers a complete view of the role genetics plays in female hormonal balance: estrogen metabolism, hormone receptors and thrombosis risk.
Genetics influences how the body transforms, eliminates and responds to estrogens. It also shapes the efficiency of hormone receptors and the predisposition to thrombotic events associated with hormonal treatments.
MyEstrogens analyzes these three axes to personalize medical care, guide decisions on hormone replacement therapy, and provide key information for the prevention of diseases associated with hormonal imbalance and cardiovascular risk.
The test studies three fundamental axes of female hormonal health, each with direct clinical implications.
Identifies genes that influence the body’s ability to transform and eliminate estrogens, a key process for maintaining adequate hormone levels and reducing the accumulation of harmful metabolites.
Assesses genes that mediate the action of estrogens and progesterone in tissues. Variations in the receptors can shape the effectiveness of hormonal therapies and the body’s response.
Includes genes related to thrombosis, a key aspect to consider in women assessing hormonal treatments. Assesses monogenic and polygenic risk.
MyEstrogens analyzes genes involved in the three areas of female hormonal balance: metabolism, receptors and coagulation.
At women who want to understand how their genetics influences their hormonal balance, and at healthcare professionals who want to integrate this information into clinical practice to personalize hormonal care.
Saliva sample following the kit instructions. Painless, with no prior preparation required.
Variants in estrogen metabolism, hormone receptor and thrombosis risk genes are analyzed.
Results by area: metabolism, receptors and thrombosis, with a combined ESR1+PGR profile.
The information helps guide decisions on hormonal therapy, prevention and lifestyle.
The report presents the complete analysis of estrogen metabolism, hormone receptors and thrombosis risk, with guiding clinical interpretation.
It analyzes three fundamental areas of female hormonal health: estrogen metabolism (how your body transforms and eliminates estrogens), hormone receptors (ESR1 and PGR, which mediate the action of estrogens and progesterone in tissues) and genetic thrombosis risk (monogenic and polygenic).
Hormonal treatments (such as hormone replacement therapy or contraceptives) can increase the risk of thrombosis in women with a genetic predisposition. MyEstrogens assesses this risk so it can be taken into account before starting any hormonal treatment.
These are the main products of estrogen metabolism. 2-OH-estrogens are considered protective. 4-OH-estrogens are potentially harmful if not properly methylated, as they can generate free radicals and damage DNA. 16-OH-estrogens have greater estrogenic activity and a proliferative effect that can be unfavorable in excess.
At women who want to understand their hormonal genetic profile, and at healthcare professionals (gynecology, endocrinology, reproductive medicine, functional medicine) who want to personalize hormonal care with genetic information.
Yes. The combined ESR1+PGR receptor profile makes it possible to classify the expected hormonal response, and the thrombosis analysis provides information on the associated cardiovascular risk. No genetic combination alone contraindicates HRT, but in less favorable profiles it is advisable to adapt the treatment on an individualized basis.
No. The genetic profile doesn’t change throughout life.
No. It provides complementary genetic information that should be interpreted by a healthcare professional together with hormonal lab tests, clinical history and each patient’s individual context.
Estrogen metabolism, hormone receptors and thrombosis risk analyzed to guide more informed decisions about your hormonal health.
