Hi,
In NCAH most endocrinologists will try to treat you with drugs that decrease your androgen levels. Tiredness in NCAH can be due to decreased cortisol levels.
If I were your treating physician I would have asked for serum Cortisol levels. if it is very low a low dose steroid at night will improve your symptoms.
Hope I have answered your questions. If you have any further queries I will be happy to help you
