Your DNA. Your Menopause. Your Plan.

The Menopause Biotype.

The Menopause Biotype™ decodes your unique genetic profile to deliver a personalized, evidence-based approach to perimenopause and menopause care — no more guesswork.

What is the Menopause Biotype™

A DNA-guided roadmap for your midlife health.

No two women experience menopause the same way. Hot flashes, brain fog, mood shifts, low libido, weight changes — your symptoms are shaped by your unique genetic makeup. Yet most treatment approaches are one-size-fits-all.

The Menopause Biotype™ changes that. Developed by Dr. Jennifer Berman, MD, it analyzes over 25 genetic variants (SNPs) across six key biological pathways to build a precision roadmap for your care — from hormone therapy selection to nutritional support, sleep optimization, and beyond.

How it works

Three steps from sample to a personalized plan.

01

Simple Saliva Sample

A painless, at-home cheek swab is all it takes. Your sample is processed by a CLIA-certified laboratory and analyzed for over 25 clinically relevant genetic markers.

02

Genomic Analysis

Our platform evaluates SNPs across hormone metabolism, detoxification, inflammation, neurotransmitter balance, and receptor sensitivity to build your individual biotype profile.

03

Personalized Care Plan

Dr. Berman reviews your results and translates them into a clear, actionable treatment plan — covering HRT options, nutraceuticals, peptides, and lifestyle interventions tailored to your biology.

The science

Six pathways. Hundreds of data points. One profile built for you.

Hormone Metabolism

Estrogen & Progesterone Pathways

Determines how your body breaks down and clears estrogen — critical for selecting the safest, most effective hormone therapy for you.

CYP1A1CYP1B1COMT
Hormone Sensitivity

Estrogen & Androgen Receptors

Reveals how sensitive your cells are to estrogen and testosterone — informing whether hormone therapy is likely to help, and at what dose.

ESR1ESR2ARSHBG
Detoxification & Methylation

Liver & Cellular Clearance

Identifies variants that affect how efficiently your body detoxifies hormones and environmental compounds — guiding methylation and nutrient support.

MTHFRGSTM1GSTT1CYP3A4
Inflammation & Stress

Immune & Cortisol Response

Maps your inflammatory tendencies and stress hormone regulation — key drivers of fatigue, weight gain, mood changes, and cardiovascular risk in menopause.

IL6NR3C1TNF-alpha
Sexual Health

Arousal, Sensation & Blood Flow

Evaluates the genetic drivers of libido, genital blood flow, lubrication, and orgasmic function — enabling targeted, non-invasive or hormonal therapies.

NOS3OXTRPDE5AGCH1
Metabolic Health

Weight, Insulin & Hormonal Balance

Identifies PCOS-related and metabolic variants that influence weight, insulin sensitivity, and hormone levels — guiding dietary and therapeutic interventions.

What you'll receive

Clarity, not confusion — on every front.

Personalized Genomic Report

A clear breakdown of your results across all six pathways, with plain-language explanations of what each finding means for your health.

Hormone Therapy Guidance

Specific recommendations for HRT type, route, and dosing — based on how your body metabolizes and responds to estrogen and testosterone — not a generic protocol.

Non-Hormonal Options

Genomically-matched recommendations for nutraceuticals, adaptogens, peptides, and lifestyle strategies for women who cannot or prefer not to use hormones.

Sexual Health Plan

Targeted insights and treatment options for libido, vaginal health, and arousal — based on your OXTR, NOS3, ESR, and PDE5A variants.

Methylation & Detox Support

Identification of MTHFR and detoxification variants that require targeted folate, B-vitamin, or liver support protocols for safe hormone clearance.

Long-Term Monitoring

Your biotype doesn't change — but your needs do. Dr. Berman's team offers ongoing tracking and protocol refinement as your health evolves over time.

Is this for you?

You deserve answers, not approximations.

You're in perimenopause or menopause and symptoms are affecting your quality of life
You've tried hormone therapy but haven't found the right fit — or you're afraid to start
You want to understand why you feel the way you do — and what to actually do about it
You're experiencing sexual health changes and want targeted, evidence-based options
You're 35–55 and want a proactive, data-driven approach to your health before symptoms escalate
You prefer personalized medicine over trial-and-error prescribing
