Uses of DHEA...

lifted

Well-known member
I have an awful lot of miscelaneous supps at my home and came across like 3 bottles of DHEA. They are 25mg/tab. I'm currently taking a lot of time off not only for this PCT, but from AAS in general. And I was wondering if I could include some DHEA use in my PCT for any additional positive benefits. I always do my research and consider to know a healthy amount of info on AAS, etc, but I haven't really read much info on DHEA and it's mechanisms of action, etc..

Appreciatte it if someone could shed some light here...thx
 
Sweet, thanks man. I'm just wondering though since I'm still only 24 and am currently doing PCT, if this will at all further supress test levels. You guys say it doesn't, but I guess the only real way to tell is by bloodtests.

SO basically, if I'm not on longterm HRT like the older guys here and am only trying to use it for PCT use, would it be worth my time??
 
from what i've read by Dr. D, DHEA helps in recovery and is not suppressive at the dosage he recommends, 200mg ed. he's a smart dude so i'm going to give it a whirl. haven't tried it yet though.
 
I finished out my PCT on 200 mg of DHEA as per Dr D's advice and I really think it makes a difference. My testicle size shot back up to normal very quickly and I feel a lot less lethargic and depressed.

I trust D implicitly but I still find it hard to believe that this is not suppressive in some way but I can't afford the blood test for all those parameters. So far so good though.
 
How does DHEA actually work to increase testicle size back to normal? I think it may improve mood etc but not actually increase LH.
 
well I took 50mg earlier today and we'll se how it goes....hopefully I'm not just prolonging the inevitable..lol...

I think it provides the building blocks to help the body make test.

Right. In theory, providing more of the precursor to Test and Estrogen, DHEA, the body will make more. I suspect that this conversion would occur more readily in a depleted state than at times when levels are normal.

I prefer Pregnenelone for this, it's even more an elementary building block than DHEA, it's the precursor to DHEA. Either one is, IMO, a good choice for everyday or PCT.

Bump on Dr. D he recommended me to take CoQ 10 while using Red Rice Yeast Xtract and I had no clue about that :thumbsup:
 
Update:

I've been using 50mg DHEA after my first meal for about a week now while on PCT. I feel so much more energized than w/o it. I usually feel like complete and utter **** while on PCT for at least a couple weeks, sometimes longer. So, I'm assuming that it's from either the DHEA or the v12 turbo that I just started not long ago. These are the only two things I'm using now other than protein powder, multi, nolva, vitamin c. Overall I'm very pleased with my PCT so far.

I have another question for DR. D, etc.

Do you think it would be wise to use DHEA all the time, and year round, even if I'm still young? Age is 24 and I'd rather play it safe and all, but I'd like more opinions...and also any updates from others that have used DHEA.

I'm just a bit older than you and I had never even considered this product might benefit me. I'm interested in tracking your progress. Now that my girl is living w/me I can have no excuses for no libido during PCT. She takes that personally.
 
taking 200 mg for the past month - feel great, neve done any kind of cycle, juse thought I woudl give it a try to increase some natty test and I am not 100% sure it's workign but a few more zits have appeared and my energy levels seemed to increase - I used to drag major ass in the am now I seem to feel great when I wake up - taking it as dr. D suggest 100mg in first meal - 100MG in 3rd meal
 
I'm interested in knowing how everyone is doing on their trial of dhea. I would appreciate some current thoughts / opinions.
 
Honestly I can't say I've noticed any benefit. I usually take an AI and a SERM so I use it for the additional estrogen. I Run about 100mg in the morning. It seems to take a lot for me to notice any supps.

Same here. I've read reports from Dr. Scally over at another board that show DHEA doesn't cause shutdown and that in younger males it simply doesn't convert readily to estrogen. So I'm considering using it in PCT next time I do, which would probably mean for me a lower dose of androlean (4 caps per day or something) along with a SERM and TRS.
