RE: Increase DHEA - question for Cheri

[Guest guest]

I am not sure . It depends on how you feel. My DHEA was super low ( " 1 " )

so I needed to raise mine more to get a balance, but if I recall your labs

were higher?

I agree to do it early in the day. I do mine at 8 am and 11 am.

10 mg might be enough for you because I think you had higher DHEA to begin

with but you can always try upping it to 15 mg and see if that works for

you.

I have been holding my dose for awhile now. I am going to be switching out

my Isocort for HC cream because I am not getting enough from the Isocort so

I will see what that does to my DHEA requirements.

Increase DHEA - question for Cheri

Cheri, as I was looking back through posts for my labs and to refer

back to what Val had said earlier, I saw that you had written me about

DHEA and how you more or less kept your doses of it consistent with

your cortisol. I have only been on 10mg (5x2) until now, but I'm on

20mg of HC now so I thought that maybe it is time to go up. What do

you think? Also, I dose in the AM and at noon. I got behind today so

I haven't had my second dose yet. It seems to me that there is a

reason not to take it too late in the day so I'm going to skip it, but

tomorrow I was thinking about going to 15 or 20mg.

Thanks,
