We talked about this as far as I know DHEA has nothing to do with Cortisol going

down it's the Cortisol going down that has an effect on DHEA. What carries the

Thyroid into the cells is Cortisol.

Yeah, but what makes my Cortisol lower now, if this is the case? Something is

up, and this something happened 2-3 days after I upped my DHEA dose til 35 mg

daily, and about 3 weeks after I quit T Gel. I can't see how low testo can give

Hypothyroiid symptoms, so it MUST be (?) the DHEA lowering Cortisol somehow.

from the other (rt3/adrenals) says DHEA can lower Cortisol.

When I asked Hertoghe about it, he just said that there are many tings that

contradict each other, but we can't listen to them all, and we have to treat you

because you're sick! So I think I might just add 2.5 mg more HC today and see if

it works. Dunno where I'll add it tho.

You can't tell how your Cortisol levels are doing on HC testing this on HC only

shows you your adrenals are still working it says your not on to much HC and

your not shuting down your Adrenals. To tell how your Adrenals are doing you

need to come off HC slow be off it 2 weeks then test Cortisol levels this will

tell you if your Adrenals have healed and if you can get by without HC.

I know, I know. I just felt like 30 mg HC daily was fine, til I added DHEA then

something happened. Umm. Hertoghe tells me I probably need to take HC, and all

the other hormones for life. As much as I hate that thought, IF I will feel good

with all those hormones replaced, I'm ok with it.

However...

I know I was given DHEA due to a lowish (a little under bottom half of the range

result) DHEA in serum, but I also know that taking HC lowers DHEA. SO, after

being on HC for a year, no wonder why my DHEA was lowish. Right?

My morning Serum Cortisol always looked fine, near the top range. I know serum

cortisol isn't the best measurment for total 24 hour cortisol, so I did the 24

hr saliva. Which came out rather lowish. I wasn't all that low, but I was lower

than normal! Like half or something. And the DHEA to Cortisol ratio was HIGH.

Don't know what that means. But.....

I just hope I am not taking hormones if I don't need them!

OBVIOUSLY I need Thyroid hormones. But do I need the rest? Hertoghe believes in

treating MOST if not ALL people, even healthy ones, with hormones. Cause then

people will live longer and look better. Ya know, he does that whole Anti-Aging

thing. Well, if I can live longer AND look better, I say let's go for it! BUT I

don't like replacing my AUTOMATIC regulation of hormones with MANUAL

replacements, regulated by ME. I am NOT the expert. My BODY is the expert for

regulating hormones! The best expert in the world in fact.

So... Now what?

Here is what happened to me my DHEA was low for yrs and taking supplements never

made me feel any better. When I tested my Aldosterone because I am all ways

Dehydrated and they come back very low. This told my Dr. my body was dumping my

sodium so he put me on florinef .1mcgs a day.

Guess what my low DHEA levels shot up over the top of the range. I had to stop

taking DHEA supplements and still today my DHEA levels are near the top of the

range.

OMG Phil I never heard this from you before....my husband who is primary and

myself secondary both have very low DHEA...mine is something like 50 and his is

maybe up to 130 now..Wow got to do some research now. He is not able to take

more than 15 mg of DHEA it has a severe E2 effect on him...so all good now we

have a clue.

And I don't have the info right here with me but will report back later....it is

our understanding that DHEA and Cortisol work in opposition of each other....or

maybe a better way to explain it would be they balance each other????

Oh an another subject to report back to you guys is our new understanding of how

important cortisol is to good wood. We have actually lost really good wood

during the fun times if he runs out of cortisol....I'll gather up all the info

we learned and write another email.

Thanks Judy here is a good link to read about this problem.

The above site helped me a lot when I found out I was Hypopituitary.

The frist thing I was told to try was to put 1/2 tsp full of good Sea Salt in my

water first thing in the morning and drink it. said if this helps a lot

then do the above tests.

Well that's an interesting story Phil! Thanks!

You know, Hertoghe symptom diagnosed me with being low on Aldosterone, and gave

me Fludrocortison (Florinef) 0.10 mg (MG!!!) a day, and I got the WORST pressure

in the head, the WORST high BP, ever!!!!!!! I quit after 8 dayus of living HELL,

almost LIVING at the ER! :P He MIGHT have diagnosed me wrong there... I did NOT

add Potassium, so maybe that's what I did wrong. But I also started straight on

that BIG dose of Florinef, so.............. Guess he did a mistake with it!

MAYBE I need SOME, a small amount of it, still. I don't know. I have dark

circles around my eyes. When I test Aldosterone in serum and urine it's never

bottom range, it's always like, towards midrange, or at least above bottom 25%!

Who knows, maybe that's not enough for me. I don't know.

Phil, I got a diagnose today, from Hertoghe, written on a piece of paper, that

says: Hypopituitarism. I guess he means Secondary, but still. There we go. After

18 years of suffering, not knowing what's REALLY wrong with me. Now I know. I

just have to make myself believe in this diagnose, and accept it. I always want

to get to the bottom of things, like a true detective. But I guess it will be

impossible to go any deeper than this - ONLY if I quit ALL meds, one can run

tests upon tests, But.... I can't do that again! I tried quitting T3/T4 2 years

ago with HORRIBLE results! My brain felt like it was gonna explode for 8 months,

EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF THE TIME!!! I don't even wanna go off Thyroid meds, not

again.

I still question which hormones I need tho. I wonder if I can be without some of

them.

Well we both have the same problem and not addressing it for 23 yrs did cause me

have has this problem 29 yrs now and I can tell you you need to keep on top of

all your Hormones your lucky you have DR. Hertoghe. At this forum you can learn

a lot about this problem.

These results suggest that the sensitivity of secretion to

physiological doses of ACTH in descending order is aldosterone > DHEA =

cortisol. When peak and incremental values are used, sufficient doses

of ACTH are 0.1μg for plasma aldosterone and 0.5μg for plasma

cortisol and DHEA in the rapid ACTH test.

So all three are inter-related. Here's another one:

http://www.psy-journal.com/article/S0165-1781%2800%2900219-5/abstract

Abnormalities of the production of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), the

adrenal androgen, have been linked with disorders such as obesity and

psychological disorders such as major depression. Adrenocorticotropin

(ACTH) is the primary stimulant of DHEA, and cortisol, from the adrenal.

We chose to examine the DHEA and DHEA/cortisol response to the novel

low-dose ACTH test in healthy subjects and a cohort with chronic fatigue

syndrome (CFS): this test is useful in assessing subtle irregularities

of pituitary-adrenal activity. Nineteen CFS subjects (diagnosed by CDC

criteria) and 10 healthy subjects were examined. We demonstrated that 1

μg ACTH significantly elevates DHEA levels, with no difference in

output between CFS and healthy subjects. The DHEA/cortisol ratio

decreased in response to ACTH stimulation in healthy subjects but not

in the CFS cohort. We suggest this divergence of response between the

two groups represents an imbalance in the relative synthetic pathways

of the CFS group which, if present chronically and if comparable to

daily stressors, may manifest itself as an inappropriate response to

stress. This difference may be important in either the genesis or

propagation of the syndrome.

I have never done any STIMulation tests. Should I do that before starting with

hormones? Like I was given HC just based on one 24 hr saliva, symptoms (getting

VERY lazy in the evening, almost zombie-like for all of 2008!), and one test of

sitting then standing blood pressure (dropped!). Was that wrong??? :\

Morning serum cortisol was always near top range, prior to starting HC.

cortisol and DHEA in the rapid ACTH test.

So all three are inter-related. Here's another one:

http://www.psy-journal.com/article/S0165-1781%2800%2900219-5/abstract

Abnormalities of the production of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), the

adrenal androgen, have been linked with disorders such as obesity and

psychological disorders such as major depression. Adrenocorticotropin

(ACTH) is the primary stimulant of DHEA, and cortisol, from the adrenal.

We chose to examine the DHEA and DHEA/cortisol response to the novel

low-dose ACTH test in healthy subjects and a cohort with chronic fatigue

syndrome (CFS): this test is useful in assessing subtle irregularities

of pituitary-adrenal activity. Nineteen CFS subjects (diagnosed by CDC

criteria) and 10 healthy subjects were examined. We demonstrated that 1

μg ACTH significantly elevates DHEA levels, with no difference in

output between CFS and healthy subjects. The DHEA/cortisol ratio

decreased in response to ACTH stimulation in healthy subjects but not

in the CFS cohort. We suggest this divergence of response between the

two groups represents an imbalance in the relative synthetic pathways

of the CFS group which, if present chronically and if comparable to

daily stressors, may manifest itself as an inappropriate response to

stress. This difference may be important in either the genesis or

propagation of the syndrome.

Secondary means your brain does not tell your body to make hormones. Primary

means your body can't make the hormones when your brain tells them too.

No I don't think you need more new labs your Dr. is one great Dr. and knows what

he needs to do.

No you all ready know your Secondary your Dr. told you your Hypopituitary. I

did this best to prove to my Dr. that I am not Primary. If I could have seen

your Dr. 29 yrs ago or one like him I would have felt a lot better.

I like him. He seems very sure in himself. He's probably perfectly balanced in

hormones and got enough Growth Hormone to stay cool and make decisions! :)

I am on T gel now but it will be interesting to see the labs in 2 weeks anyways!

Felt no difference taking gel today.

Hmmm. What do you do to solve that issue? Drink more salt?
