Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) levels were determined in morning specimens from 659 fasting postmenopausal women who were not using estrogen therapy or antidiabetic medication. All women had concurrent oral glucose tolerance tests and measurements of body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio (WHR). DHEA levels were weakly and inversely associated with BMI but not with WHR or glucose tolerance status. DHEAS levels were not associated with BMI but were positively associated with WHR, diabetes, and impaired glucose tolerance. In analyses adjusted for or stratified by WHR, the DHEAS association with abnormal carbohydrate tolerance was reduced but still independent of fat distribution. Because this was a cross-sectional study, it was not possible to determine whether DHEAS levels were raised by central obesity or vice versa. At a minimum, these data strongly suggest that the positive association of DHEAS with both central obesity and abnormal glucose tolerance does not support the thesis that DHEAS protect against diabetes or obesity in older women as had been suggested by animal studies.
