Have You Found DHEA Beneficial?

I know Defy pushes this hard. Personally, I found DHEA helped a bit with sleep, but it made E2 difficult to control while on a biweekly testosterone protocol. Have not tried it since going on a dailies protocol yet.

I generally take 25mg before bed. I almost always have dreams when I take it, which makes me think I sleep deeper.

I never dream normally.

What are your DHEA-S levels?

Prior to starting taking it, it was mid range. I can’t recall exactly. What it is after taking it, I never tested.

My Preg was way below average though.

In my experience doses that are recommended are way too high. 5-10mg sublingual works well for me. I just buy the cheapo vitamin shoppe brand and sprinkle some under my tongue. $12 bottle lasts me three months.

@blizzardtest Hmm will give this a try after my body’s used to the new dailies protocol I’m on.

Do you know your DHEA-S levels? I checked mine before and after 25mg, and I went from 218 to 277, but still on the low side.

Last time I got levels checked was about 2 years ago. 282. About when I started experimenting with dosing.

dream state is not deep sleep though. REM is stage 3 and deep is stage 4 if I remember correctly

When taking the supplement when you take the lab is very important. One Dr has told me take lab 5 hours after you take supp.

Well dreaming means your on your way to stage 4 I guess.
