The Androgen Clock: Decoding Epigenetic Evidence Of Hormone History

Biological history encoded within DNA reveals crucial information about health trajectories, aging patterns, and disease risks. For decades, healthcare providers have relied on hormone testing methods that capture mere snapshots – transient measurements failing to reflect lifelong hormone interactions. As a result of this fundamental limitation, our understanding and treatment of hormone-related conditions affecting millions worldwide has remained profoundly incomplete, missing critical patterns of cumulative exposure that drive disease progression and accelerate aging processes.

Enter the androgen clock – a groundbreaking diagnostic innovation analyzing DNA methylation to establish comprehensive, long-term records of androgen exposure.
