Adrenal Test Results

[Guest guest]

Hi, I am relatively new to this group and I just received my adrenal

panel results and would like opinons. If I read this correctly I

think it is stage 4. This particular lab broke Cortisol into 8AM,

Noon, 4PM, 8PM, Midnight, and 4AM.

Cortisol Panel

8AM - 33.4 (35.0-63.0)

Noon - 21.6 (14.4-28.2)

4PM - 15.3 (8.8-23.7)

8PM - 15.5 (6.4-16.0)

Midnight - 13.5 (2.4-12.8)

4AM - 14.7 (3.2-16.0)

DHEA

8AM - 2.6 (2.8-12.7)

8PM - 2.2 (2.7-9.0)

Midnight - 2.3 (1.8-8.1)

Testosterone Female 8AM - 19.8 (30.0-44.0)

Progesterone Female 8AM - 76 (40-95)

Estradiol Female 8AM - 1.9 (0.5-1.5)

Dr. would like a ratio of Progesterone/Estradiol to be 100:1

Salivary Sodium 4PM - 18.0 (20.7-50.1)

Salivary Potassium 4PM - 17.3 (15.3-27.6)

Salivary Chloride 4PM - 22.0 (15.7-36.6)

I have just switched to Armour (used to take .137 mcg of

Synthroid). After 2 weeks I am up to 2 grains (1 grain twice a

day). I have no Thyroid due to Thyroid cancer. So far the doctor

has put me on a custom harmone cream to be used twice a day.

Val, can you or someone tell me a little more about what the test

results show?

Thanks so much,

Pat
