Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) sulfate is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands. DHEA sulfate is a precursor to both male and female sex hormones, including testosterone and estrogen.
DHEA supplements are sometimes used to improve fertility in women with low ovarian reserve or diminished ovarian function. Some research suggests that DHEA supplementation may help improve egg quality and potentially increase pregnancy rates in women undergoing fertility treatments. Additionally, DHEA supplements have been studied for their potential role in improving libido and supporting overall hormonal balance.
However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any DHEA supplementation, as it can have side effects and interact with other medications. Dosage and duration of supplementation should be carefully monitored to ensure safety and effectiveness.
