Christmas treatment
I am currently taking
DHEA
and my clinic advised that results peak at 4-5 months of taking. I was going to take it for 3 months as a lot of people on here seem to do, that would take me to treatment next month. I just do not think I am ready for ivf next month.

Are these levels ok? Starting ivf next month
Hi starting a new ivf round next month and had thyroid re checked before starting stims, I'm currently taking
DHEA
and coq10 with knowledge of consultant , I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the coq10 can effect thyroid.

B12 Newly diagnosed, help please
The cortisol levels were high 499 nmol/l (133-537) high but "within range" I then decided to get a salivary test done privately and cortisol was off the chart(high) and
dhea
low. Saw a private endo who asked GP to test for cushings.....normal result.

AF has finally arrived!!!
After thinking that
DHEA
had caused AF to go away, she appeared last night!!! Cycle length was 43 days, I have never been that long. If all settles back down to normal now with length it should make better timing for our 3rd cycle in relation to work etc!!!

Dhea has arrived!
So I've just received my
dhea
in the post. Suddenly getting cold feet. Has anyone taken this brand before? Just wondering about the side effects. I'm worried about the possibility of sprouting a beard and turning into an angry/shouty person 😬 Ahh, the joys of infertility 😂

1st scratch 🤤 then bring on round 4 😔
To be honest I haven't got my hopes up I'm totally turned off from my clinic and dreading going back, they have put us under so much pressure to start this round before the new year due to egg quality, I'm taking
DHEA
and coq10 to trying to improve egg quality.

Trying to conceive after loss with thyroid issues
I've also been considering taking ubiquinol and
DHEA
to try and improve egg quality but my Endocrinologist says to keep things simple. Any advice/ insights would be much appreciated.

Supplementing DHEA with Hashimotos?
Is there anything to be wary of when taking
DHEA
if you have Hashimotos? I'm starting to take it for fertility reasons.

Dr Henry Lindner's take on control of thyroid hormone treatment and effects on other hormones
If it works, I adjust the dose and add
DHEA
which is absolutely necessary for long-term health when taking HC or any artificial steroid. Endocrinologists are not trained to optimize one of these major hormones, let alone both in the same person.
