DHEA for those on cycle or TRT

[st8grad]

Here's a little cut and paste. Lately many people have been asking about DHEA and I have been reading with more frequency doctors talking about managing DHEA replacement with TRT.

So for those guys who say they don't feel better on cycle or on TRT level testosterone, DHEA might be something to look at.



Studies of men have shown that DHEA replacement therapy is an important complement to testosterone therapy. Among aging men, the amount of “free” testosterone, or testosterone that is available to the body, falls more quickly than the level of total testosterone. Thus, it is important to design a hormone replacement program that raises the level of free testosterone. In a 1997 study, DHEA levels were shown to parallel the levels of free testosterone in the blood. The study authors suggested that DHEA might help raise free testosterone. If this conclusion is correct, then DHEA replacement therapy would not only raise the blood level of DHEA, but also the level of free testosterone (Morley JE et al 1997).

Still, other studies have shown that DHEA may be an effective therapy for erectile dysfunction. Although there are conflicting studies in this regard, a few have shown that among men without heart or vascular disease, DHEA has been able to improve erectile dysfunction (Belaisch J 2002).

Yes, and this is exactly why guys have made Dermacrine a major part of their HRT regimen… and they can keep DHEA right where they need it with less than the average dose. (3-4 pumps ED, instead of 5)

Remember, all the main metabolites of DHEA are what’s really doing most of the work anyway – such as 7-alpha, 7-keto, Adione, Adiol, Atriol, ect… DHEA is basically the father of all male hormones.

True PP. Bump for Dermacrine. It should be pointed out that Dermacrine and Derma Sustain are different for those who hit the Primordial website.

Yes....An age management clinic here, (HRT) also gives DHEA with Testosterone and HGH and all the patients I know have had great results !

What I don't know is if the 'prescribed' DHEA is the same quality as over the counter DHEA.

I take about 55mg DHEA EOD

Yes....An age management clinic here, (HRT) also gives DHEA with Testosterone and human growth hormone - somatropin - and all the patients I know have had great results !

What I don't know is if the 'prescribed' DHEA is the same quality as over the counter DHEA.

All DHEA is likely coming from the same source (china) so the quality is probably all the same. The only difference is you are more likely have an accurately dosed product (per pill) if it’s a prescribed "drug" since the manufacturing requirements are so much more strict... but I’d say 95% of supplement manufactures are putting out an accurately dosed product, so I wouldn’t worry too much

The quality of the topical delivery system is a whole other matter. I’ve never been to impressed with the pharmacy's topical preparations.
