Dhea

[danger77]

Has anyone ever heard of or used this?? Doctor told me I was on the low normal test range and told me to take DHEA and we would revisit my test levels in a few months....everything I read kinda made me feel like I would probably be wasting my money for this...

Listen to your doc. Never tried the capsule or oral version, just used the trans-dermal version. So when you purchase it look for a trans-dermal version online. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has heard of DHEA. It's not a new thing, and unless you've been living under a rock you've heard of dhea.

Did you feel like it did what you wanted it to kins...I planned on trying it out...I just did some research on it and everything I read said that there are mixed feelings on if it works or not

Well, if you are deficient you should notice an increase in energy and libido. "Works" is a relative term though. It's not something that's gonna pack on muscle or anything. I used to use "Dermacrine" but I think it's been discontinued. That product did give me a bit more energy and made me feel happy. For current products, I don't have any idea on a recommendation. Really I don't follow the supplement industry much.

Notice In the DVD The Unbelievable Ronnie Coleman was still taking them on top of all his gear lol... Still a good idea for older guys.. I don't take but once I hit 40 I'm on it..

I had a doctor who gave me DHEA along with test C injections a while back. I now just use test C and to be honest I'm not sure it made a difference because the test is what is working for me, I initially tried to locate some injectable DHEA when I decided to go rouge and fix myself but had no luck at all. I did get a bottle of micronized caps but again can't say if they actually did anything because I have restored my test levels through injections.

It's not to restore your testosterone levels. It's to restore your DHEA levels if they are low. Most likely if your testosterone is low, your dhea is also low. Only way to find out is a blood test though.

That makes sense. I have not tested DHEA levels in a while, I probably should.

Dhea has many positive functions in the body and is often advertised as one of the fountain of youth hormones since young people have the highest levels. I have my parents in their 60's taking 25mg orally and have confirmed that their levels from a life extension blood test through labcorp are back in the normal reference range. The blood tests for Dhea measure dhea sulfate which is thought to be a good indicator of true dhea levels in the body but there is research saying that this might not be so as it was believed that dhea and dhea sulfate could convert back and forth. Most of oral dhea gets converted over to dhea sulfate after is gets processed by the liver. Some swear they feel better taking it orally and others topically so who knows. Transdermal would be the most sure way, like Kins said, of getting dhea into circulation without going through the digestive route.

I take this at 50mg day orally. Have been for a couple of years....wouldn’t know it’s effects unless I stopped. I started taking it when my doc was helping with some over 40 hormone imbalances I had, along with TRT.

It’s in my regime . I take ton of supplements. I actually had neighbors go around saying was drug addict and when found out why because of on my bureau have my vitamins , amino caps, my herbs , combo vitamin formulas for like cardio or anti aging. Yeah I live with idiots . Of course they all drink alchohol until oblivion daily so I think jealousy they don’t get bodybuilding or being health nut . I always remember the movie pumping iron Lou Ferrigno with big cup water downing his supplements. ( maybe some peds too lol ) however to build muscle even with AAS the foundation is a healthy body
