HairDX At-Home Genetic Test Now Physicians Only


HairDX announced that it will no longer offer its genetic test for predicting hair loss risk to consumers online.  The California-based biotech company will continue to offer its test to physicians who can conduct the tests and determine the best course of action based on the results.  The news comes as part of an on-going concern of state and federal regulation issues surrounding at-home genetic tests. Both the FDA and CDC have indicated that the potential for misinterpretation of results and incorrect testing are significant enough to limit genetic tests to a lab or physician’s office.  The test was previously available online for $149.00 and was believed to help individuals identify a hair loss risk in their genetic make-up.  Read the complete HairDX news brief
