Understanding Your Body’s Stress Response: NR3C1 Gene Testing
When your body doesn’t respond properly to stress hormones, it can feel like you’re fighting an invisible battle. Unexplained fatigue, persistent inflammation, or hormonal imbalances that don’t respond to standard treatments can leave you feeling frustrated and misunderstood. Our NR3C1 Gene Glucocorticoid Resistance Test provides the scientific clarity you deserve, helping you and your healthcare provider develop a treatment plan that actually works for your unique genetic makeup.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The NR3C1 gene plays a crucial role in how your body responds to cortisol and other glucocorticoid hormones. These hormones regulate everything from your stress response and inflammation control to blood sugar levels and immune function. When mutations occur in this gene, your body may become resistant to these essential hormones, leading to a cascade of health issues that standard medical approaches often miss.
Using cutting-edge Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we examine your NR3C1 gene with unprecedented accuracy, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could be impacting your health.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained chronic fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Persistent inflammation or autoimmune symptoms
- Hormonal imbalances that don’t respond to conventional treatments
- Family history of similar endocrine or hormonal issues
- Unexpected responses to steroid medications
- Difficulty managing stress or recovering from physical stress
If you’ve been through multiple doctors without finding answers, this genetic insight could be the missing piece in understanding your health challenges.
