Adrenal Stress Profile – Comprehensive Evaluation of Cortisol and DHEA-S Balance

The Adrenal Stress Profile from Doctor’s Data Laboratory provides a detailed assessment of your body’s stress response and adrenal function by measuring DHEA-S and four timed cortisol levels throughout the day.

Cortisol, often called the “stress hormone,” helps regulate energy, blood sugar, and inflammation. Under chronic stress—whether emotional, physical, or environmental—cortisol patterns can become disrupted, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, poor sleep, immune dysfunction, and hormonal imbalance.

This non-invasive saliva test measures the free, bioavailable fraction of cortisol—unbound to protein and active at the cellular level. By evaluating cortisol at four key times of day (morning, noon, evening, nighttime), this test reveals your body’s natural circadian rhythm and stress adaptation.

The profile also measures DHEA-S, a key adrenal hormone that helps buffer the effects of cortisol. Maintaining a healthy DHEA-S to cortisol ratio is essential for balanced energy, mood, and resilience.

WHY CHOOSE THIS TEST

Chronic stress can gradually weaken adrenal function, contributing to conditions such as fatigue, anxiety, depression, infertility, sleep disturbances, allergies, and weakened immunity. By evaluating both cortisol rhythm and adrenal reserve, this test helps identify early signs of adrenal imbalance and guides personalized stress recovery and hormone support strategies.

Ideal For Individuals Experiencing:

• Chronic fatigue or burnout

• Sleep problems or insomnia

• Anxiety, depression, or irritability

• Low immunity or frequent illness

• Weight changes or cravings

• Allergies or inflammation

• Difficulty handling stress
