Osteoporosis now!
I have just started on HC cream +
DHEA
(from Dr Myhill) for my adrenals and 3rd day on Armour (from GP) and had a bone density scan and have been told I have osteoporosis, I think, in my lower back. Was dazed at the news and didnt take it in. Going to see GP next Wed.

Wilsons and adreanal
I have been able to alleviate this by taking 10 Mg of
DHEA
with my NDP that helps but through out the day my eyes start to water then swell up and I can't see , I must say its a lot better with the
DHEA
.

Adrenal Exhaustion
My
DHEA
has also dropped since last year, it was flagged as low in the afternoon. Do you think my GP will actually do anything to help?

Allergy
I have tried taking a small amount of
DHEA
but that doesn't help. I was wondering if I need to take more NDP but on the NHS T4 I was taking 100 Mg. If I take more NDP then my face goes really red and my skin is really dry. any help or advice would be most appreciated. John c

In there anyone out there who has managed to sort out sleep problems by balancing thyroid/hormone issues?
Had my adrenals/hormones checked Autumn 2012 and at that stage, despite the ongoing sleep problems, my cortisol was in range (behaving exactly as one would expect) though my
DHEA
was just below range (took a short course of
DHEA
but didn’t have any noticeable improvement in sleep).

You take them 3 months before egg collection to mature your eggs more and make them stronger worth a try has anyone tried these before?

On T3 and building. Feel better for a couple of weeks and then worse again.
I am also on
DHEA
, Vitamin D, B12 and Iron and those levels are at the high end of the scale. Has anyone else experienced this?

Can treating Hypothyroid raise DHEA levels?
My
DHEA
and Vitamin D were low back in December so I have been taking supplements (5,000 IU Vitamin D, 25mg
DHEA
) for those and on the last test they came back optimal. Could getting closer to optimal with the NDT be causing me to produce more
DHEA
and I am now getting too much?

Does anybody take, or have taken 7-Keto for their adrenals? Does it increase DHEA, and how much should I take?
So much conflicting advice and info, I really have no idea how much to take for adrenal fatigue (low
DHEA
really, as cortisol is ok - if not a little low). Any advice on amount/make etc? Does it even work to raise
DHEA
levels?

Is it ok to take DHEA and NDT together?
I just wondered if anybody has taken both NDT and
DHEA
at the same time? My
DHEA
levels are low, but cortisol is within range so I'm taking 3mg
DHEA
sublingual each morning to hopefully raise this. I'm not taking any thyroid meds yet though. Any advice very much appreciated!
