While on 25 mg/day of DHEA I developed pimples at age 56, and began experiencing hair growth in odd places including forehead. This new hair began driving out my normal hair on scalp. No positive results I could detect. Unfortunately I cannot sue.

5mg sublingual everyday. Larger doses gave me headaches. Before testing i took a blood test which showed my dhea sulfate level was low. I've gained muscle, increased sex drive, and am no longer depressed since taking it. Also dropped all antidepressants.

After taking the supplement for a month, I didn't feel any different. Energy level felt the same. Did not lose any weight or notice a change in my sleeping pattern. After reading all the positive reviews on Amazon, I was a bit disappointed.

I can't say enough about the positive effects of DHEA. Now in postmenopause, I am finally flying into clear skies after going through a storm of nightmarish symptoms that began shortly after age 50. The worst symptoms were fatigue and weight gain. I started taking 5-10 mg daily and within 24 hours, I noticed increased energy and skipped my usual afternoon nap. After a month, my weigh in at the doctor's office revealed a 3 lb weight loss. My mood is calmer and I feel happier. As an experiment, I cut my dose in half. Bad idea. The afternoon fatigue and brain fog returned. I've decided I don't want to go through life without my DHEA. It has been a great asset to my health!Read More Read Less

I am 65 and have been really dragging at the end of a work day. Had my blood levels done and was only 4.8 on DHEA which is very low. I'm skeptical about nutritional supplements but my PCP advised me to try it and with my blood levels that low I knew there was a reason to try it. I started with 100 mg daily. Surprisingly my energy slowly returned to about the level it was 7 or 8 years ago. No, not like age 45 but enough to make a huge difference in quality of life. There has to be a true pharmacological effect so I recommend not starting it until you get baseline blood levels done. It has worked so well I'm dropping to 50 mg and will get blood levels again in a couple of months. When something works more is not always better. Normal dose for men is 50-100 mg per day. I started high to get the levels built back up.Read More Read Less

I have extreme dry eyes. I was tested for Sjogren's Syndrome and I do not have it, but I DO have eyes so dry that they have become extremely light sensitive and so dry and gritty that I am in pain 24/7. I have not talked to my doctor yet, but it seems that when I take 100 mg daily of DHEA, my dry eye symptoms are gone. When I stop taking it, my pain comes back. If you have dry eye pain, it's worth a shot! Give it a try and please let me know if it worked for you.

Women taking more than 5 mg. of DHEA? 25 mg./day? Excessive. I took smaller amounts of DHEA with better results!

For years now I have been loosing focus which is very bad for a programmer. I am also on meds for diabetes and blood pressure, both which are not good for focus. I am finding that 2x100 mg has given me my programming skill back by allowing me to focus on problems for hours. No trouble sleeping, not irritability, and no nervousness until I go to 300 mg per day. 200 mg is a high dose and I don't intend to stay there very long. I will cut back as my health comes back. Diabetes and blood pressure do not seem to be affected by this dosage, in fact they may be slightly improved with my higher levels of activity. It is good stuff, much better than caffeine, but be careful.Read More Read Less

Awesome drug for me, has improved my memory, muscle tone, skin, endurance, and mood. Aches and pains have decreased. Only downside seems to be a bit or hair loss (not sure). Taking 25mg/day, higher dosages did not seem to improve things. I am taking Natrol 25mg but I do not see that on the list.
