A member asked:
What is dheas ?also what does it mean the dr. say you need dheas, free +total testosterone prolactin.what role does it play in a woman in the 30's?expl
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible PCOS: Dheas is a hormone made mostly by the adrenal glands that has some male hormone effects. If you have irregular periods, weight gain, excess body hair growth, your doctor may be looking for evidence for polycystic ovarian syndrome by doing the male hormone levels. High prolactin can also cause menstrual changes.
