Advice on my Adrenal Stress profile please

[Guest guest]

Hello

Can anyone help interpret the results of my Genova Diagnostics 24hr salivary

cortisol test please, see results below

Cortisol

Sample 1, 15.7 (range 12-22)

Sample 2, 3.6 range (5.0-9.0)

Sample 3, 3.1 (range 3.0-7.0)

Sample 4, 2.8 (range 1.0-4.0)

tOTAL daily cortisol 25.2 (Range 21-41)

DHEA

Sample 1, 0.13 L

Sample 2, 0.21 L

DHEA Mean 0.17 (Range 0.30-1.00)

DHEA Cortisol ratio 0.67 (1.0-4.0)

ADRENAL STRESS STAGE: Resistance stage 3-Maladaption: generally reflects

" pre-exhaustion or pre-adrenal fatigue " Usually DHEA levels fall before cortisol

levels are reduced. Often as a result of an inability tp balance chronic

stressors or poor adaptation to intensive acute stressors. This pattern would

indicate a stateof long term stressors depleting adrenal reserves. Stress

analysis and adrenal support & RESORATIVE MEASURES ARE EXCEEDINGLY IMPORTANt.

Can anyone suggest what I do to help myself. I sleep very poorly despite taking

melatonin, I already supplement with B vitamin complex, selenium, Vit C, Vid D &

iron.

I am stresses about not being able to get well properly!

I am currently on 150 mcg Levothyroxine and am convinced that my poor sleep is

due to the Levo, has anyone else experienced this? Could the poor sleep be

anything to do with low DHEA?

Thanks for reading, any advice appreciated!
