How Does Genetics Affect Estrogen in Men? A Gene-by-Gene Guide

Genetics shapes estrogen in men through four pathways: how much testosterone converts to estradiol (CYP19A1), how efficiently it clears (COMT, MTHFR), how sensitively tissues respond (ESR1), and how much substrate is available (SHBG, SRD5A2). The Precision Peptide Genetic Test maps all these variables across 14 pathways and 150+ genetic insights.
