DHEA-S
Also known as Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate
An adrenal steroid that declines steadily with age — a sensitive marker of adrenal-reserve capacity and biological-age metrics.
Definition
DHEA-S is the sulfated form of dehydroepiandrosterone, the most abundant circulating steroid. It falls steadily with age — by the 70s, levels are typically 20% of peak young-adult values. Low DHEA-S is associated with blunted stress response and reduced bone density; supraphysiological replacement carries risks in both sexes. Measurement is useful for longevity-focused baseline labs.

Testosterone
The primary male androgen — measured as total and free fractions. Low levels in men drive the TRT decision; in women, context is everything.
Clinical ConceptCortisol
The body's primary stress hormone, secreted by the adrenals under HPA-axis control — one thing Ipamorelin specifically does not raise.
