I believe you can get tested but I just don't know off the top of my head what that would be other than looking for the genetic MTHFR defects. I believe you can also figure it out by trail and error. When correcting undermethylation you usually start with the methyl B12 and then add in the folate. You work up slowly so as not to flood the body. If you have too many methyl groups, I believe you'll have some symptoms. The way to correct it is with niacin. Niacin gobbles up the methyl groups. I think cucurmin and green coffee extract does too.
Methylation takes place pretty much everywhere and I think those drugs are targeted to specific "things" for lack of better understanding on my part.
I'll look for the link(s) and post them when I find it.
