Femme Reset

Investigate woman's ageing concerns

FDX 26

Whilst the average life expectancy of a woman in the UK is now 83.2 years old, recent data suggests women whilst living longer will be sicker in later life, and a woman can expect to live in declining and ill health after aged 63 i.e. 25% of her life.

Femme Reset is created to give a comprehensive insight into the intricate interplay of the body systems and their implications on your clients’ optimal health. Revealing patterns of dysfunction which may indicate and influence your client’s health progression / trajectory as they age.

Our chosen biomarkers consider sugar and lipid management implicit in the production of AGE products (advanced glycosylation end products), Detoxification & autophagy, Chronic inflammation, immune function, oxidative stress, thyroid and sex hormones along with key nutrient status and energy production. Reveal more about your client’s health picture. FDX Femme Reset considers 13 body systems, 7 accessory systems, 7 macro systems, 14+ nutrient assessments and over 40 clinical dysfunction trends crucial to identify ageing and degeneration concerns.

Suitable for:

Those / women who would like a comprehensive review of their bodies ageing status
Those / women concerned or wanting to know more about their health outlook, looking to identify potential areas for ageing acceleration risk.
Those / women interested in ageing well and looking to future proof their health and wellbeing / reduce the ageing process
Those / women with conditions or symptoms that suggest concerns to longevity and vitality in old years such as Diabetes, metabolic conditions, Osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease
Those with family history of ageing and degenerative conditions

Recommended for those over 45 years old, but this test can be run at any age, especially if accelerated ageing is suspected.

FDX 78: Dihydrotestosterone

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a male sex hormone (androgen). Androgens are endogenous steroid hormones consisting of DHEA, Androstenedione, Testosterone and DHT. DHT is the most potent hormone amongst the androgens because it is not converted to estrogen, it is considered to be a pure androgen. It is created from testosterone via the action of the enzyme 5 alpha-reductase and is produced in the prostate gland, adrenal glands, liver, brain, and hair follicles. Its action is related to the tissue in which it is produced. It is a more potent hormone than testosterone (approx. 1% circulated feely as unbound), it has a slow dissociation (approx. 5x less than testosterone) and long half-life (2x affinity to the androgen receptors). During development and adult life in men, it promotes prostate growth, activity of the sebaceous glands, male pattern baldness and the development of characteristics that are typically associated with men (body hair, muscle growth, and a deep voice). In women DHT levels are associated with issues including hirsutism, amenorrhea, and increased acne.

Test instructions

Test guidelines: Fasting blood draw required in the morning. For menstruating females requiring hormone assessment, we recommend the blood draw to be taken on day 21 of the cycle. Can using HRT impact the results? The hormone markers will be influenced by HRT medications. However, the test can be used to identify dysfunctions that can impact on ageing aside of sex hormone levels. CLICK FOR KIT INSTRUCTIONS
