    What is Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test?

    The DHEAS test is a blood test that measures the level of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in the body. This hormone is mainly produced by the adrenal glands, two small organs located just above each kidney. DHEAS is vital in producing sex hormones, including testosterone and oestrogen.

    Doctors use this test to evaluate adrenal function and diagnose certain conditions. DHEAS levels can provide insights into disorders of the adrenal glands, ovaries, or testes. The test may also help identify the cause of specific symptoms, such as early or delayed puberty in boys or male-like traits in women, such as increased body or facial hair and a deeper voice.

    The DHEAS test is often conducted alongside tests measuring sex hormones, such as testosterone in men and oestrogen in women. These combined results offer a comprehensive view of hormone health and assist in diagnosing hormonal imbalances.

    Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test Parameters

    The Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test focuses on measuring the level of DHEAS hormone in the blood.

    DHEAS, a type of androgen or male sex hormone, is found in both men and women. While most of it is produced by the adrenal glands, smaller amounts are made in the testicles and ovaries.

    This hormone is converted into other hormones like testosterone and androstenedione (male hormones) and oestrogen (a female hormone). Although men produce more testosterone and women more oestrogen, both sexes require these hormones for various bodily functions.

    The DHEAS test is vital for assessing male puberty traits such as voice deepening and muscle development, as well as maintaining reproductive health for all genders. It helps doctors analyse adrenal gland performance and overall hormonal balance.

    Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test Preparation

    Before scheduling a DHEAS Test in Hyderabad, consider the following:

    • Prerequisites Fasting is not required before undergoing a Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested You can take this test at any time of the day.

    • Who Should Get This Test This test is suitable for individuals experiencing signs of hormonal imbalances, such as abnormal hair growth, irregular menstrual cycles, early or delayed puberty, or those being evaluated for adrenal and reproductive health concerns.

    • Cautions Before Taking This Test Generally, no special preparation is necessary for the DHEAS Test. However, it’s advisable to consult your doctor beforehand to confirm its relevance to your condition.

    Why Take the Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test?

    A Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate test is recommended if you experience signs of abnormal DHEAS levels. Men usually don’t exhibit clear symptoms when DHEAS is high, but women and girls may show specific signs.

    Common symptoms of high DHEAS in women and girls:

    • Increased growth of body and facial hair

    • Voice deepening

    • Irregular menstrual cycles

    • Acne

    • Muscular development

    • Hair loss or thinning on the scalp

    In baby girls, high DHEAS may lead to ambiguous genitalia, and boys showing early puberty signs might need this test for elevated DHEAS.

    Low DHEAS symptoms linked to adrenal issues:

    • Unexplained weight loss

    • Nausea or vomiting

    • Dizziness

    • Dehydration

    • Intense salt craving

    When related to ageing, symptoms of low DHEAS include:

    • Reduced libido

    • Erectile issues in men

    • Vaginal tissue thinning in women

    A DHEAS test can identify these issues and guide treatments when hormone imbalances or adrenal concerns are suspected.
