DHEA Test for Adrenal Gland Function

The lab analyst performs an analysis of dehydroepiandrosterone, known as an unconjugated form of DHEA. It is a major precursor of 17–ketosteroids, which the body forms when it breaks down certain hormones. Lab analysts commonly perform the test on a serum specimen. Clinicians primarily use the testing to determine adrenal gland function. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries. This page does not show national, sample, or aggregate pricing.
