In this episode, Dr. Danielle discusses the hormone DHEAS and its importance in fertility. DHEAS is a hormone made in the adrenal glands and is converted from DHEA. Testing DHEAS levels can provide a better understanding of DHEA production and adrenal function. While high DHEAS levels are common in women with PCOS, low DHEAS levels can be found in those struggling with infertility. Low DHEAS levels can lead to low estrogen levels, irregular or absent ovulation, and thin uterine lining. DHEA supplementation can improve egg quality, ovarian function, and fertility outcomes.
