This dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) test measures the level of DHEA-S in the blood. DHEA-S is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands and is found in both men and women. This test helps aid in the evaluation of adrenal gland function, identify hormone imbalance and assess reproductive and hormone health.
DHEA-S levels naturally decline with age and are often evaluated in the context of other sex hormones such as testosterone for men and estrogen for women. Testing DHEA-S levels can help you and your healthcare provider evaluate symptoms and conditions related to DHEA-S.
Note: This test does not diagnose or determine the cause of infertility, menstrual irregularities or any health condition. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider if you have any questions about your result.
