Dehydroepiandrosterone near me in Kolkata

Available at an affordable price in Kolkata with Tata 1mg labs, the Dehydroepiandrosterone is a blood test that helps evaluate the levels of a dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), a hormone produced by the adrenal glands. This hormone plays an important role in developing male and female sexual characteristics and maintaining overall hormonal balance. 

Your doctor may suggest the Dehydroepiandrosterone test along with other hormone tests  if there are symptoms that may suggest an adrenal disorder, adrenal tumor or another problem. Also, it is often done for women who have signs and symptoms such as no menstrual periods and infertility and when a girl or woman has symptoms related to developing masculine physical characteristics. Infants or children with differences in sex development may also need a DHEAS test. Additionally, the test can be done when young boys show signs of precocious puberty. 

An overnight fasting is preferred for the Dehydroepiandrosterone test but is not mandatory.
