Re: DHEA can make you bloat

[Guest guest]

ah, another piece of the puzzle! Not only did it make me bloat but I started

having hot flashes again (which previously I had successfully controlled with

progesterone cream)

I stopped taking the dhea more than a week ago but, despite increasing the pc, I

am still having hot flashes.

If so say that dhea can increase estrogen levels maybe Roxanna is experiencing

symptoms of estrogen dominance some of which can be easily mistaken for thyroid

symptoms

p.s. DHEA can make your estrogen levels too high, which can result

in bloating)

That's another reason I do not take it near ovulation....like I need more

estrogen dominance then!

I agree that that could be true....except that during the last week I have been

taking pregnenolone....just for the very reason of not wanting to exacerbate

estrogen dominance during high estrogen times.

A little background......I had tried for month and months to decrease what I

thought were estrogen dominance symptoms with progesterone cream....never did

much. It wasn't until those first few weeks on Armour/hc that the alleged

estrogen dominance symptoms went away. I believe I still do need progesterone

cream because of my age and faulty ovulation, but ED has been the least of my

problems.....

Men must have it easier, yes?
