Optimal range: 0 - 4.57 mmol/mol
A moderate urinary increase in 4-hydroxybutyric acid may be due to intake of dietary supplements containing 4-hydroxybutyric acid, also known as gamma-hydroxybutyric acid. Very high levels may indicate the genetic disorder 3-methylglutaconic aciduria involving succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency.

4-OH-E2 is associated with a higher risk of certain cancers and other negative markers for breast health in females. Due to the lack of research in this area, it may be postulated that males carry a similar risk.

4-Hydroxyestrone is a crucial estrogen metabolite measured in the "FU Female FMV Urine Comprehensive Hormone" panel, offering significant insights into estrogen metabolism and women's health. This metabolite is one of the three primary pathways through which estrone, a form of estrogen, is metabolized in the body. The significance of 4-Hydroxyestrone lies in its biological activity and potential implications for health risks, particularly in relation to estrogen-sensitive conditions such as breast cancer.
Optimal range: 0 - 0.5 ng/mg Creat/Day
Higher levels indicate slowed COMT activity (methylation) and are associated with a higher risk for breast cancer in females. Due to the lack of research in this area, it may be postulated that men carry a similar risk. Elevation may also be due to an overactive CYP1B1 enzyme or sluggish CYP1A1 or CYP34A. Additional support for the COMT enzyme can help with the conversion toward the inactive
metabolite, 4-M-E1.
