What We Test For And Why
Your genetic makeup and hormones play a key role in your hair loss and how your body responds to hair loss treatments. We analyze 20 genes that help us get a better understanding of your optimal treatment.
-
MUC1Mucin 1
This gene is related to magnesium absorption. Variants could indicate if magnesium supplementation might benefit your hair health.
-
DMGDHDimethylglycine Dehydrogenase
This gene affects your body’s selenium levels. Low selenium can impact hair health, so variants here might suggest the need for supplementation.
-
SULT1A1Sulfotransferase 1A1
This gene affects how well you activate minoxidil. Variants may suggest the need for a higher dose or additives like tretinoin.
-
SRD5A1 & SRD5A2Steroid 5-Alpha-Reductase
These genes influence DHT levels, which affect hair loss risk. High activity may increase risk, suggesting DHT-blocking treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, or spironolactone.
-
MTHFR
Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase
This gene influences your body’s folate levels, which are essential for healthy cell growth, including hair follicles. Variants may impact your need for folate supplements.
-
GPR44-1 & GPR44-2
Prostaglandin D2 Receptor
These genes reveal your sensitivity to prostaglandin D2, linked to hair loss. Cetirizine may help by blocking this pathway.

This allows us to personalize your treatment with ingredients that are more likely to work effectively for you.
