The MyDNA Fertility Report – Female is a personalised genetic and nutritional assessment designed to help identify factors that may influence female fertility and reproductive health. The report looks at how your genes, nutrient status and environmental exposures may affect hormone balance, ovulation, egg quality, inflammation and overall fertility outcomes.
 
Female fertility can be influenced by many factors, including nutrition, stress, hormone health, environmental toxins and genetics. Conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis and uterine fibroids may also impact fertility. This report helps provide a more individualised understanding of areas that may benefit from additional support.
 
The test analyses 34 genes involved in:
Hormone balance
Ovarian and reproductive function
Methylation pathways
Iron metabolism
Thyroid health
Detoxification and oestrogen metabolism
Oxidative stress protection
Inflammation and cellular health
 
Key genes assessed include:
MTHFR 677
TP53
TMPRSS6
TF
PDE8B
VDR
GSTM1
PON1
 
These genes may influence how your body:
Processes folate and B vitamins
Regulates hormones and thyroid function
Manages inflammation and oxidative stress
Detoxifies environmental toxins
Supports egg quality and reproductive health
Absorbs and utilises important nutrients such as iron, zinc and vitamin D
 
Particular attention is given to MTHFR variations, as some individuals may benefit from methylfolate or folinic acid rather than standard folic acid supplementation.
 
The report also reviews important nutrients linked to fertility, including:
Vitamin B1
Vitamin B12
Vitamin A
Vitamin D
Vitamin E
Calcium
Iron
Zinc
Selenium
Choline
Omega 3 fatty acids
Glutathione
Fasting insulin
 
Nutritional deficiencies or imbalances in these areas may impact hormone production, ovulation, implantation and overall reproductive health.
 
Environmental factors that may affect fertility are also assessed, including exposure to:
Pesticides and herbicides
Heavy metals such as cadmium and lead
Bisphenol A (BPA)
Phthalates
PCBs
Glyphosate
 
These environmental exposures may influence hormone balance, thyroid function, ovarian health and fertility outcomes.
 
Analytes included in the report include:
Aspartame
Bisphenol A
Cadmium
Calcium
Choline
Fasting insulin
Ferritin
Glutathione
Glyphosate
Iron
Lead
Omega 3 fatty acids
PCBs
Pesticides
Phthalates
Prebiotic fibre
Selenium
Thyroid markers including TSH, T3 and T4
Vitamin A
Vitamin B1
Vitamin B12 and folate
Vitamin D
Vitamin E
Zinc
 
The information from this report can help guide personalised nutrition, supplementation and lifestyle strategies to support reproductive health and optimise fertility outcomes.
