DHEA-S is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands that serves as a reservoir for sex hormones like androgens and estrogens. Abnormal levels may indicate adrenal dysfunction, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), adrenal tumors, or endocrine imbalances.
This test measures the concentration of DHEA-S in serum, helping evaluate adrenal contribution to hormone balance, hyperandrogenism, or possible adrenal pathology.
