Positive experiences
“DHEA, minimum 50 mg was a huge game changer for my wife. More energy, libido, dopamine/happy mood, concentration- everything.”
“Once I started taking dhea...I felt significantly better. It raises T, has positive effects on both gaba and dopamine.”
“DHEA might help also. I sleep very deep and have vivid dreams on it. I take 25mg an hour before bed.”
“I almost instantly felt awake and I stayed that way all day. Even the 3-4pm slump, which is a daily struggle that I sometimes cannot win, had no impact on me.”
“I've been taking 100 mg of DHEA daily for about half a week. I have noticed a significant improvement in my mood and energy levels.”
“I've been taking pregnenolone, dhea, and tongkhat ali and it helps keep my mind straight while living alone, working alone.”
Negative and mixed experiences
“I started off with like 25mg and have upped it over time to like 150mg now... I’m usually more assertive as well, similar to Tribulus but it actually helps me sleep.”
“I have had surprising benefits from low dose dhea. Hair loss slowed, migraines improved. But does make me bloated.”
