It’s Cytochrome P450, a liver enzyme. So you may be completely fine.

Erm..... Yes, the enzyme to metabolize estrogen in the liver is also of the cyp 450 family.

Cyp (450) 3a4.

Cyp3a4 as well as cyp2c9 are the ones responsible for thc metabolism.

Both of the cytochrome 450 family.

Did you learn this through genetic testing?

This I learned by googling.

My issues with methylation I noticed when I took methylsulfonymethan for skin and nail benefits and it really messed me up x)

As for my issues with estrogen..... I have to take endogenous estrogen, and despite very low doses, my blood levels were sky high, way higher than they should be.

I have high estrogen and low progesterone so I take progesterone for two weeks of the month.

I’ve heard of genetic testing for the MTHER gene, so I was wondering if the Cyp450 was a similar test.
