I have all the symptoms that show someone is suffering from adrenal fatigue and have been feeling these symptoms over the last 3 years.
I recently got my hormones tested via a saliva test. The test measured saliva at 4 different times in the day with cortisol being measured only once in the day (morning). The results came back like so:
Estradiol - result within expected range
Progesterone - result within expected range
Testosterone - higher than expected range
DHEAS - over twice expected range
Cortisol (morning only test) - within expected range
My testosterone and DHEA came back pretty high with DHEA being over double the expected range. My questions:
1. Are there some assumptions I can draw from these two hormones at high levels?
2. Should I do another test to measure just Cortisol but at 4 different times in the day instead of just in the morning?
