Hormones
DHEA-S
Extended panel — run periodically
What it indicates
An adrenal hormone that acts as a precursor to other sex hormones.
Why a series helps
It declines gradually with age, which makes a multi-year series the natural way to read it.
What this page does not tell you
What a particular DHEA-S result means depends on you: your history, your medication, why the test was taken. Ziro does not interpret results for individuals and does not diagnose. If something in your results warrants a conversation, that conversation is with a doctor, and your results are downloadable so you can bring them.
