DNAlysis DNA Oestrogen

Approximately 80% of breast cancers occur in women with little to no family history.

About this 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.

The process

1. Order the test (or combination test)
2. Collect your DNA sample using the DNAlysis test kit that is sent to you.
3. Sample is sent to the DNAlysis laboratory and report sent to your healthcare practitioner within 3 to 4 weeks..
4. Explore your DNA. Your healthcare practitioner will notify you once they receive the report to set up a consultation. Your data is securely stored for future reports, if desired. (feedback can only be given to you through a consulting practitioner)
