Clinical Mastery – Genetics, the Missing Puzzle Piece for Oestrogen-Related Disorders (2 x 60-minute sessions) – 2022

Session 1 Genetics, the Missing Puzzle Piece for Oestrogen-Related Disorders

Abnormal oestrogen metabolism has been linked with many symptoms and conditions including endometriosis, fibroids, heavy menstrual bleeding, PCOS and skin related problems such as acne and rashes. Over two Clinical Mastery sessions, geneticist and clinical nutritionist, Dr Denise Furness will translate new research and outline the profound health impacts of methylation and the key genes that code for enzymes required to support oestrogen metabolism including COMT, MTHFR, GSTP1 and NQO1.

Over two sessions, Dr Furness will advance your understanding of the activity of key enzymes involved in hormone metabolism and their interaction with nutrients and environmental exposures with special attention paid to hormonal disorders such as PCOS and endometriosis.

During the session Dr Denise Furness covers:
• Investigations to identify hormonal imbalances
• Why order a genetic profile?
• MTHFR 677 and 1298 and their impact on homocysteine levels, methionine, and SAM production
• How to support COMT and methylation
• Caloric restriction and riboflavin levels and NQO1 activity.
• GSTP1 and NQO1 and their role in hormone-related conditions
• Supporting glutathione levels
• PCOS genes and associated treatment options
• Endometriosis genes and associated options.
