Frustrated - please help me with my battle plan :)
In the United States... So, last year my daughter was diagnosed hypothyroid. In studying up on that, I suspected I was too - brain fog, fatigue, low basal temp, high bp, insomnia, mild depression among other things. In Nov. I got doc to order labs. He wanted to take a wait and see based on numbers

What do I do?
I have taken
dhea

7 ketoDHEA?
Unlike
DHEA
, it does not degrade into testosterone and does not normally cause the dangerous side effects of prednisone. In alternative medical circles, it is considered the hormone of well-being as it tends to rise as people do joyful things, and it decreases with age and stress.

Clearing a cyst - OK to take dhea?
I've seen a herbalist for lots of natural liver cleanse things, which might help, but I'm wondering about
dhea
. I was taking it and I stopped to give my body a chance to stabilise hormone levels alone. I asked my clinic if they think the
dhea
is causing the cyst, they said unlikely.

Hello, Last test 4+ months ago, showed low levels of both
DHEA

British government you need to stop the unnecessary early deaths of mainly women Thyroid suffers who are mostly undiagnosed except with endless signs and symptoms but never the cause - Thyroid and adrenals (
DHEA
, cortisol etc, pregnenolone etc).

In a dilemma should I still see the private Endocrinologist
My fear is that he will not be open to taking NDT, my
DHEA
levels and hormones levels are low from previous blood tests I’ve taken and I wonder if perhaps he may help in this area. What I don’t want to do is him to order loads of blood tests costing hundreds of pounds.

A sh*t birthday
So I had EC on Friday 7th, it wasn't great as we only got 2 eggs despite me being on
DHEA
, ubiquinol and all the other normal pre-conception supplements for over 6 months (I have literally been rattling and not sure they've worked).

7 eggs collected!
I took
DHEA
for nearly 4 months so lets hope the quality is better too. And my DH's sample was good, so good they almost didnt do ICSI but im happy they were cautious and did it anyway. For the first time in almost a year I feel like we're in with a chance.

Advice
By any chance has anyone used
DHEA
? I was told about it today and I’ve never heard of it before. I’ve done some research and it’s a bit vague. Has anyone tried it and been successful
