Really high dhea and Androstenedione making my hair fall out

Messages

So I got back my dutch hormone tests and my dhea, Androstenedione, cortisol and estrogen are high but my dhea is almost at the highest level. I had a ct scan a year ago and no tumors on my adrenals. The tests show just below the level that I should get it checked.

I do have a COMT ++ with lots of stress no matter what I do I still have it. Has anyone done anything that helped with lowering your dhea and didn't have your estrogen go up and no extra hair fall out?

Mine is falling out and I am afraid to address the estrogen with dim a lot of people say their hair fell out. I am not sure about the calcium d glucarate. Anyone had some success or maybe use something like lithium oxolate to speed up the comt pathway? Also I am a female. Thanks for any assistance.
