DHEA question
DHEA
September 23 <10 [106 -300)
DHEA
. January 24. 6 (0.26 - 6.68) Different companies but you can see that 25mcg daily of
DHEA
has done its work. However one company did mention that when older a lower
DHEA
is expected.

Testosterone
Has anyone had their testosterone tested before starting
DHEA
? My GP kindly tested mine and it's 0.4nmol/l. The lovely Google tells me this is low for fertility so I would probably benefit from
DHEA
after all. I was concerned about taking too much on the 75mg dose.

Melatonin, unsure of ivf clinics advice… help?!
They said given my biggest issue is low egg maturity rate, they would recommend I start
DHEA
and Melatonin. I asked if I needed to test my levels first for
DHEA
and they said no they’d just suggest I take 25mg 3 times daily,… does this sound right?

DHEA supplements
In the post review letter it says “
DHEA
was suggested although we are unsure of its benefits.” What are peoples thoughts? After lots of research it seems very hit and miss. Also if I were to take them can anyone PM with good brands please? Thanks in advance!

DHEA & COQ10
However if the FET doesn't work I don't want to be waiting another 3 months to give
DHEA
time to work to begin a cycle.

DHEA supplements
Can I ask if anyone has used
DHEA
for fertility aid and if it helped? Also, are there any known side effects and is It ok to take if you have a good egg reserve? It was recommended to me by my doctor to use to prepare for my second round of IVF.

DHEA levels
Anyway, I was prescribed
DHEA
(abroad) in the hope to improve my AMH, what it has from 0.02 in aug 2023 to 0.05 Jan 2024 (a small improvement). But now my
DHEA
-S levels are high 11.820 ug/ml (range is 0.56 - 2.83ug/ml according to the lab).

DHEA medication /Hashi flare?
My
DHEA
was less than 10 (106 - 300) so my thyroid Dr gave me a prescription for
DHEA
. Has anyone had headaches after taking them? I’ve been four weeks in and too early to tell if they are working. Be grateful for any feedback. I also think I’m having a Hashimoto flare, my own fault if it is.

Advice please
If I stop
DHEA
for two weeks it's going to be out of my system anyhow. The doctor has left it up to me to decide. Has anyone got a view? (Also feel like I'm already giving up on my FET if I start preparing for it 'not' working)

I am so disappointed after having my first scan and only seen 5 follicles on day 6 of stimulating.
I was taking 900mg of COQ10 and 75mg of
DHEA
of 21century brand and Melatonin 3mg which brand I don't remember. Is 21 century brand good for IVF. I need your advice ladies

DHEA supplements and higher doses of Folic Acid?
Has anyone been advised to take
DHEA
(Dehydroepiandrosterone)? And if so, any side effects? My consultant has suggested it as there are some studies that suggest it could increase conception rates during IVF treatment by increasing ovarian response to stimulation.

DHEA - one month before next cycle.
I have had a delivery of
DHEA
today. I decided I might start 25 mg a day. (smaller dose) My testosterone is 0.7 and my GP has agreed to do blood tests for me. I'll have testosterone,
DHEA
and progesterone tested on day 21 of my cycle this week.

High oestradiol - medicheck result. Help please !
I ordered a medi checks test to check my
DHEA
and testosterone - both incidentally look ok. Very concerned about the oestradiol result which is 1,131 - wildly high according to parameters. The fsh and lh are also out of range.

First time poster overwhelmed with symptoms and considering self-medicating with bovine adrenals & NDT. Asking for advice & recommendations
I'm not taking any of these medications currently as I just don't trust the prescription - he made some errors in what he was saying - he didn't know what
DHEA
is, for example. I was taking
DHEA
for fertility for a few years and it definitely improved my symptoms.
