thanks Tina and Gracia,

so if my DHEA is off, do you think my dr. will test cortisol? The reason I

ask is b/c she said a while back that she thought my problem was estrogen or

cortisol, so I'm wondering why she isn't testing those. She is testing the

antagonists though and Im wondering if that's enough.

when you go for the lab work tell them you also want estrogen it's

just as vital--tell them or the doctor or do it yourself---as for

cortisol -- is so right I would say the rate of getting this

one correct is worse off than trying to predict what a tsh lab result

is.

You don't have to be tested for cortisol if you are low in dhea this

would be enough to realize the adrenals are having problems.

As well as low in estrogen/progesterone and testosterone.
