Momma yensua DHEAS sɔhwɛ no ho ade. Dɛn nti na saa hormone yi ho hia yɛn nipadua?

Yɛn nyinaa nim sɛnea hormone ahorow ho hia na ama yɛn nipadua ayɛ adwuma yiye. Ɛtɔ mmere bi a, sɛ worebɔ mmɔden sɛ wubehu nea ɛde wo akisikuru anaa wo bra a ɛnkɔ so daa ba a, ebia wo duruyɛfo bɛhyɛ sɛ wɔnyɛ wo mogya mu nhwehwɛmu.

Dɛn ne DHEAS kɛkɛ?

Sɛ yɛbɛka no tiawa a, DHEAS (Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate) yɛ steroid hormone a ɛwɔ yɛn nipadua mu. Wɔyɛ no wɔ obiara mu, a ɔbarima anaa ɔbea mfa ho. Adrenal glands a ɛyɛ ntini nketewa abien a ɛwɔ yɛn asaabo atifi no titiriw na ɛde ba.

Susuw DHEAS ho sɛ ade a wɔde yɛ nneɛma. Yɛn nipadua de DHEAS yɛ hormone afoforo a yehia. Eyinom ne androgens , a ɛyɛ mmarima mu nkwaadɔm (sɛ nhwɛso no, testosterone), ne estrogen , a ɛyɛ mmea nkwaadɔm.

Afei ebia woresusuw ho sɛ, "Dɛn na mmarima hormone yɛ ma wɔ ɔbea nipadua mu?" anaasɛ "Dɛn na mmea hormone yɛ ma wɔ ɔbarima nipadua mu?" Nokwarem no, mmarima ne mmea nyinaa wɔ saa nkwaadɔm abien yi nyinaa wɔ wɔn nipadua mu. Nanso ɛsono sika dodow a wɔde ma no. DHEAS hormone no ho hia yiye ma mmarima su ahorow a wɔbɛma anya nkɔso, titiriw bere a abarimaa bi adu ne mpanyin afe so no, ne awo nhyehyɛe no dwumadi a ɛfata wɔ mmarima ne mmea nyinaa mu.

Dɛn nti na oduruyɛfo bi bɛkamfo DHEAS nhwehwɛmu yi akyerɛ?

Nneɛma pii nti na oduruyɛfo betumi ahyɛ sɛ wɔbɛyɛ nhwehwɛmu yi. Nea enti titiriw ne sɛ wobɛhwɛ sɛ wo adrenal glands no reyɛ adwuma yiye anaa.

Wɔtaa hyɛ sɛ wɔnyɛ DHEAS nhwehwɛmu wɔ nsɛm a edidi so yi mu:

• Sɛ wosusuw sɛ ɔhaw anaa akisikuru bi wɔ adrenal glands no mu a.

Dɛn ne sɛnkyerɛnne ahorow a ebetumi aba sɛ DHEAS dodow kɔ soro?

Nea efi DHEAS dodow a ɛkɔ soro mu ba no betumi ayɛ soronko wɔ onipa biara ho. Momma yɛnhwɛ sɛnea wɔyɛe no.

Sɛ DHEAS dodow so tew a, dɛn na ɛba?

Ɔkwan bɛn so na wɔyɛ sɔhwɛ yi? Sɛ wɔtwe mogya no a, ɛyɛ yaw?

Eyi yɛ mogya mu nhwehwɛmu a ɛyɛ mmerɛw yiye, a wɔyɛ no daa. Wunni biribiara a ɛsɛ sɛ wohaw wo ho wɔ ho. Egye nea ennu simma anum.

Eyi ne nea ɛtaa ba:

1. Ɔyarehwɛfo anaa oduruyɛfo a wɔatete no bɛkyekyere rɔba (tourniquet) wɔ wo nsa so wɔ wo nsateaa no atifi pɛɛ. Hwɛ hu sɛ ntini no bɛda adi pefee.

Wɔde mogya a wɔfa no kɔ aduruyɛdan mu ma wɔyɛ ho nhwehwɛmu.

So ɛsɛ sɛ misiesie biribi ansa na mayɛ sɔhwɛ no?

Mpɛn pii no, DHEAS sɔhwɛ yi nhia ahosiesie titiriw biara.

• Esiane sɛ DHEAS dodow nsakra kɛse da mũ no nyinaa, te sɛ hormone afoforo nti, wobetumi ayɛ nhwehwɛmu yi bere biara wɔ da no mu.

Mete nea afi amanneɛbɔ no mu aba no ase dɛn?

Ebia ebegye nna kakraa bi ansa na nea efi mu ba no asan aba bere a wɔde mogya no akɔ aduruyɛdan mu awie no. Wo duruyɛfo bɛkyerɛkyerɛ nea ebefi mu aba no mu akyerɛ wo bere a wɔakɔ mu no.

Eyi te saa efisɛ "normal range" a ɛwɔ DHEAS mu no gu ahorow gyina mfe a obi adi, ɔbarima ne ɔbea nna, ne lab a ɛyɛ sɔhwɛ no so.

• Sɛ DHEAS dodow dɔɔso a, ebetumi ayɛ tebea bi te sɛ Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) , adrenal tumors, anaa ovarian cancer ho sɛnkyerɛnne.

Nanso kae sɛ eyinom yɛ nneɛma a ebetumi aba ara kwa. DHEAS dodow nkutoo ntumi nhu yare bi. Sɛ ɛho hia a, wo duruyɛfo bɛhyɛ sɛ wɔnyɛ nhwehwɛmu foforo mma wo.

So eye sɛ wobɛnom nnuru a wɔde ka aduan ho a DHEA wom?
