I am sceptical of anything in this report since the author is apparently ill-informed. For starters he is calling an enzyme a gene. Stupid.

Re: "He is calling an enzyme a gene. Stupid."

Headlines are usually written by copy editors (or software programs).

At several points in the article, the author specifically talks about manipulating the "Aromatase gene" to increase or decrease production of the enzyme.

If the author referred to the Aromatase gene as "CYP19, located on chromosome 15q21.1" the general reader audience at SciTechDaily would start dozing off.
