Genetics
The variants that change how you should be cared for.
Your body activates clopidogrel less efficiently than most. If cardiology offers clopidogrel, ask about prasugrel or ticagrelor instead.
Intermediate metabolizer: reduced clopidogrel activation. Avoid clopidogrel; consider prasugrel or ticagrelor.
Higher risk of muscle pain from statins. Worth asking about your atorvastatin dose or switching to pravastatin.
Reduced function: increased statin-associated myopathy risk. Consider lower-dose atorvastatin or pravastatin.
Pathogenic variant linked to elevated breast and ovarian cancer risk. With your mother's recent diagnosis, your screening cadence should shift — annual MRI plus mammogram.
Pathogenic variant associated with elevated breast and ovarian cancer risk. Heightened relevance given family history.
