How much should dheas be in women trying to conceive?
Got my hormone panel done and the dheas number is bothering me, not sure whats the normal range when ttc. Im going to discuss with my gynac next week but till then anyone knows roughly what its supposed to be?
There's a normal range labs print on the report but the exact value ur doctor wants depends on ur age and case, so dont judge it yourself. When I was tested my gynac read it along with my other hormones, not in isolation. Best to show ur report to her.
DHEAS often comes up with PCOS which I have. Mine was checked as part of a full hormone panel and the doctor interpreted it, I honestly didnt try to read the number alone. Please get yours reviewed by a fertility specialist, every body is different.
During my IVF journey they checked all these hormone levels closely. The ranges shift a bit lab to lab, so the actual normal for u is something only ur doctor can confirm in context. Sending u good wishes, hope ur reports come out well.
These hormone numbers are tricky to interpret on ur own, there are reference ranges but context matters a lot. Rather than us guessing, take the report to ur gynac and ask her what it means for ur conceiving plans. Thats the safest.
