How can I lower my DHEA-s level to regrow and strengthen hair?

in my opinion, there are multiple reasons your dheas could still be elevated. I would suggest a full endocrine work up by a board-certified endocrinologist or a gynecological  endocrinologist. cosmeticskin.com

There are many options to lower DHEAS but how exactly to do that will depend on the cause of the elevation. I can't tell if the DHEAS elevation is relevant to your hair loss - it would be incorrect to assume the link is so straightforward. Please see a hair loss expert to guide you. Not all female hair loss is so androgen driven.

There could be many causes of this including Poly Cystic Ovarian Disease. You need to see a specialist in endocrinology to help you. I would assume that you already had the following work-up. I simply can’t write a textbook on the subject on this site, but here’s a list of past posts that may help you understand what you’ve got going on:

The first step in evaluating hair loss in women, after a detailed history and physical exam, is to rule out any underlying medical causes of hair loss which can be treated. If clinically appropriate, the following disease processes should be considered: anemia, thyroid disease, connective tissue disease, gynecological conditions and emotional stress. Furthermore, over 50% of women going through change of life hormone fluctuations (menopause) experience significant hair loss. It is also important to review the use of medications that may cause hair loss, such as (but not limited to) oral contraceptives, beta-blockers, Vitamin A, thyroid drugs, coumadin, and prednisone. The following laboratory tests have been recommended to rule out the aforementioned medical conditions:

Some common blood tests for female hair loss:

·         Sex Hormone tests

·         SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) used to test status of male hormones

·         Estradiol is a sex hormone

·         FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) *not hair follicle but follicle in the ovary*

·         LH (Luteinizing Hormone) is a sex hormone

·         Free Testosterone

·         Total Testosterone

·         ANA (Anti Nuclear Antibody) used to test for Lupus or other autoimmune diseases

·         TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) used to test for hyper or hypo-thyroid disease

·         Test Iron status

·         TIBC (Total Iron Binding Capacity)

·         Ferritin
