    What is Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test?

    The DHEAS test measures dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels in the blood. This hormone, primarily produced by the adrenal glands located above each kidney, is essential for the production of sex hormones like testosterone and oestrogen.

    Medical professionals use the DHEAS test to assess adrenal gland performance and diagnose certain health conditions. By evaluating DHEAS levels, doctors can detect issues in the adrenal glands, ovaries, or testicles. The test also aids in understanding symptoms like early or delayed puberty in boys or the development of masculine features in women, such as facial hair growth and a deeper voice.

    This test is often paired with other hormone tests, including testosterone for men and oestrogen for women, to provide a fuller picture of hormonal health and detect any imbalances.

    Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test Parameters

    The DHEAS test determines the amount of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in the blood.

    DHEAS, an androgen or male sex hormone, is present in both men and women. While primarily made in the adrenal glands, smaller amounts are also produced in the testicles and ovaries.

    This hormone is a precursor for testosterone, androstenedione (male hormones), and oestrogen (a female hormone). Both genders produce and utilize these hormones, although men have higher testosterone levels, and women produce more oestrogen.

    This test plays a critical role in evaluating puberty-related changes like muscle growth and voice changes in males and supports the assessment of reproductive health across genders. It provides insights into adrenal function and hormone levels.

    Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test Preparation

    Keep the following in mind before booking a DHEAS Test in Mumbai:

    • Prerequisites No fasting is required before undergoing the Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate Test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested This test can be performed at any time during the day.

    • Who Should Get This Test The test is often recommended for individuals with symptoms such as unusual hair growth, irregular menstruation, early or delayed puberty, or those being assessed for adrenal or reproductive health issues.

    • Cautions Before Taking This Test Usually, there are no specific preparations for this test. However, consulting your doctor beforehand is a good idea to ensure it is necessary for your evaluation.

    Why Take the Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate (DHEAS) Test?

    The Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulphate test may be advised if you show signs of an imbalance in DHEAS levels. Men often show no obvious symptoms, but women and girls may exhibit noticeable signs of high DHEAS.

    Symptoms of high DHEAS in females:

    • Increased facial and body hair

    • Deepened voice

    • Irregular periods

    • Acne

    • Muscle growth

    • Hair loss on the scalp

    For baby girls, high DHEAS might cause ambiguous genitalia, while boys showing signs of early puberty may need this test to assess DHEAS.

    Signs of low DHEAS due to adrenal problems:

    • Unexplained weight loss

    • Nausea

    • Frequent dizziness

    • Dehydration

    • Salt cravings

    Age-related low DHEAS symptoms include:

    • Lowered libido

    • Erectile problems in men

    • Vaginal tissue thinning in women

    Testing DHEAS levels can assist in diagnosing hormone or adrenal conditions and in choosing the best treatment path.
