If your pituitary MRI was normal, get a referral to a reproductive endocrinologist for evaluation of estrogen/progesterone levels, as such may just be drawn at a point in your cycle where values are in fact lower (post ovulatory or the first day or two of your menstruation).

I have low cortisol, progesterone, estradiol and melatonin levels, and high testosterone. What could cause this combination of abnormalities?
2 doctor answers • 4 doctors weighed in
I have normal cortisol, progesterone, and estradiol but high testosterone and very high DHEAS (double normal range). I am also a type 1 diabetic and seem to be insulin resistant (hbA1C is 8.2). Could insulin resistance be the cause of elevated DHEAS?
