Question: what causes high dhea levels?
Answer: If your level of DHEA-S is high, it may mean that you have adrenal cancer, tumors, or excess growth of hormone-producing tissue (hyperplasia). If your DHEA level is low, it may mean that your adrenal glands are not making enough hormones. This can be because of damage to the adrenal gland or a diseased pituitary gland.
