I have heard/read all about DHEA.....Ah, what exactly is it and what does DHEA stand for? I have a very good AMH result BUT I am 44 years old, so need to make sure I have very good egg quality as I don't want to be throwing good money after bad at the private clinic. I asked my clinic what was the best way to get the best quality eggs and they just shrugged and said, just look after yourself. If I can get better quality eggs at my age then I am willing to do anything?

Need some advice and fast. Thanks peeps!!!
