Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a steroid hormone precursor that helps maintain healthy hormone levels and helps support the stress response system. DHEA functions as the counterpart to the stress hormone cortisol. Maintaining healthy DHEA levels is crucial for balancing the catabolic effects of cortisol.
DHEA and its sulfate, DHEAs, are the most abundant steroid hormones in the human body and can be found in blood, saliva, urine and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). DHEA serves as a “buffer” reservoir to be used for the intracellular synthesis of various estrogens and androgens throughout the human body. DHEA production peaks during the second decade of life. Beginning in the early 30s, DHEA levels typically decline by 10% per decade. In addition to the normal decline associated with aging, other possible causes of a decline in DHEA production include inflammation, blood sugar imbalances and long-term stress.

Great one stop woman wellness!
I've just started coming to this office as of February 2020 and so far I am very impressed. The staff from the front desk to the nurses to the doctors everyone you encounter is very friendly and professional . They take their time with me every time I come here , making sure to answer all my questions. I have even had two video appointments that also went very well. It shows that all the staff that works here really cares about their patients. Also I really like the electronic system they use to update patients with information. It's so nice , I just get a text notification and then I can read the summary of my doctor visit or my lab results. It's so impressive.
