The DHEA test measures the level of dehydroepiandrosterone in a single venous blood sample. DHEA is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands and its concentration may support assessments of stress response, energy levels, and age‑related hormonal balance. This test is suited for adults who want to monitor adrenal health, especially when evaluating fatigue or hormonal changes. It includes one biomarker, DHEA, and adds a £50 phlebotomy fee per visit.
About this treatment
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is an adrenal‑derived hormone that can provide insight into how the body manages stress, energy, and age‑related hormonal shifts. The DHEA test requires a single venous blood draw and quantifies only the DHEA molecule, making the panel straightforward yet informative. Results may support discussions with a clinician about fatigue, mood changes, or hormonal optimization, particularly for adults experiencing unexplained low energy or those interested in longevity monitoring. The service includes the laboratory analysis of the DHEA marker, a detailed results report, and a brief tele‑consultation to interpret the findings. A £50 phlebotomy charge applies for each collection visit.
