A type of androgen that may be found in excessive amounts in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), or other conditions of excessive androgen production. Androgens are produced primarily by the adrenal gland and/or the ovary. A high level suggests increased adrenal androgen output. To function properly the hormones need to be not only of certain level/concentration but also in correct balance. Too high or too low levels can cause numerous conditions, many of them causing infertility in both men and women. DHEAS level may be checked as part of an infertility evaluation. In most cases, the cause of hyperdihydroepiandrosteronism or byproducts can be treated and fertility restored.
