DHEA and delayed period - UPDATE BFP!!!

Hi ladies, as the title says, any experience of this? I started taking dhea on cycle day 1, ovulated 14 days ago and had light brown spotting from days 9-11 post ovulation which has now stopped. I did a test yesterday but as usual bfn. Worried dhea has messed me up in some way, either by delaying or stopping af, or maybe that tiny spotting was it for this month which can’t be right. I found posts of DHEA lengthening follicular phase but not leutal phase?? I think I definitely ovulated as used OPKs and all the other usual signs of cm, sore boobs. Any suggestions? Should I stop taking the DHEA for now? X

Oh what a time! I am so sorry I don't have am answer but I wondered whether you may have a delay as you are focussed on it? Hopefully it will come today. I too am awaiting my period so I can plan my next round. Thought it was coming yesterday as I had some light spotting however nothing! Maybe today will be the day! Xx
