High DHEA worried - cortisol readings help needed

Dear community,

I've just received the results of my cortisol testing and wanted to get some feedback with its interpretation.

Which ranges should I consider here? The ones in green? So if my AM cortisol is 14 and the optimal range is (14-25) then the good result would be to be up there in the 25s?

In this case I guess I have low morning, low noon, high evening and high night? Or is my approach wrong?

I'm also very very worried about my high DHEA.

Advice very appreciated.

Kind regards.
