Q regarding cortisol levels - anyone else experience very low levels? Could it be Addison's disease? I know it's rare.
range 1441.0 ng/mg 2750 - 6500
DHEA
-S Within range 509.0 ng/mg 20 - 750 Results from the NHS have been the following: Plasma cortisol level (XaEKZ) 369 nmol/L [140 - 690] (9am) Plasma cortisol level (XaEKZ) 311 nmol/L [140 - 690] (9am) How do I get them to take this seriously?

High AMH but poor egg quality
So the problem seems to be egg quality and I have taken all the supplements (not
DHEA
because it is only recommended for women with low AMH). Supplements have made no diff. I don’t smoke, I don’t drink alcohol and my diet is fairly healthy (not perfect but not bad).

Dhea and cysts
Hi I was just wondering if anyone on here as experience of
dhea
giving them cysts? I am on a low dose of just 25 mg every other day and I feel like I can feel stuff going on down there so I'm getting a bit paranoid it's giving me cysts.

DHEA question
I have a follow up with the doc at the end of the month but would like to start taking
DHEA
asap so i’m on the the road to three months earlier. i’ve seen people recommend testing levels first which I can do myself by ordered a finger prick test. Do I check
DHEA
alone or with testosterone?

Has anyone any comparison IVF cycles without and then with DHEA?
Hello All, I’m just wondering if there are any ladies out there, with low AMH, who have had a failed IVF cycle(s) without taking
DHEA
. Then taken a course of
DHEA
prior to another IVF cycle and noticed a difference? If so, what were the differences.

Testosterone & DHEAS blood test results - can I take DHEA?
I recently got tested for DHEAS and testosterone so i know what my natural level is before taking
DHEA
. The results were: Testosterone has come back as 0.8 nmol/l
DHEA
S has come back as 3.6 umol/l Would you consider this low enough to be ok to take
DHEA
and hopefully increase egg quality?

Has anyone used 7 keto DHEA
7 keto
DHEA
is a parent hormone that is not converted to steroid hormone such as androgen and estrogen. It is used to improve lean body mass and build muscle, increase the activity of the thyroid gland, boost the immune system, enhance memory and slow aging. I am on lupron and xtandi.

Sublingual DHEA Part 2
Thank you SeasideSusie, it’s an unusual way to go about things, dictating and then just closing off a post but I’ve seen it on other forums so I’m not entirely surprised. My original post stipulated that people should pm me with sensitive details. Thank you.
