Global Constraint Rule
The separate MediBalans
clinical pathway
The clinic route begins with symptoms, history, medicines, previous investigations and ordinary medical or gynaecological care. Selected endocrine, metabolic, gut, nutritional or genetic measurements may be considered when they can answer a defined question.
Global Constraint Rule (GCR) is MediBalans' internal clinical reasoning framework, developed by Dr Mario Anthis, for organising information from several domains and deciding what to investigate first. It is not itself a validated diagnostic test and does not mean that every patient receives every panel.
This assessment, any medical interpretation and any care plan are clinic services. They are not included in the direct Women's Health+ purchase.
GCR · Hormonal Constraint Domains
Four domains the clinic may consider when relevant
01
Gut-related markers. GI Effects® reports beta-glucuronidase among other stool markers. A result does not by itself establish the cause of hormonal symptoms.
02
Genetic context. Panels such as MethylDetox report selected variants, including COMT. A variant is interpreted with clinical context and is not a diagnosis or automatic treatment instruction.
03
Immune and food-reaction questions. If clinically relevant, the clinic may discuss what an ALCAT result can and cannot show before deciding whether it adds useful information.
04
Nutritional measurements. CMA and other panels report selected nutritional markers. Results require interpretation alongside diet, medicines, symptoms and standard laboratory findings.
