High DHEA-S but normal testesterone and cortisol.
Hello! Has anyone ever dealt with this.
1. My periods are regular and painless. Never felt a cramp in my life.
2. Recently started temping to see if I ovulate and noticed last month I didn’t get confirmation. I have been getting my periods every 27-28 days for the past 4 months….
3. I do have IBS and have many intolerances.
4. I don’t have heavy periods.
I have these results from 3 years ago. When my acne first started in 2019, I decided to go to a dermatologist 2x. He then adviced to get my hormones checked instead. Everything was normal except my DHEA-S. I had chin and forehead acne ONLY. She said it wasn’t a big deal but to manage stress. She adviced to get on BC to lower the androgen. I got YAZ and it worked which is why my DHEA-S dropped 4 months later. I only took them for 5 months cause it made me feel weird. I hadn’t gone to the doctor regarding my levels anymore. I don’t get the cystic acne on my chin anymore but my forehead acne came back so bad.
It’s very stubborn and kinda looks like cystic acne/ comedones. I don’t use hair products besides shampoo and conditioner. I also stopped using a new sunscreen and didn’t see much more improvement. I get painful cysts on my hairline. I’m still using tretinoin but not sure what to do?
Can this still conclude I have PCOS???
