Who has the info on DHEA?

I know that taking supplemental DHEA increases all sex hormones including estrogen*.

Also does nothing if your levels are already high.

I tried it once a few years back, nothing special.

P.S - What the fudge is wrong with my corner?
 
Its banned in Australia, I think USA supps can still have it.
 
banned via how?

Of course something good is banned.

**** i can go right now and buy heroin from someone easier then probably getting this shit then. All in the name of fair sport sigh
 
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)

Looks towards fadi's corner... :)

I think you may be mistaking DHA for DHEA n00bs. I've never written a word on DHEA (until now that is) but would not recommend for anyone to take it for the same reason I would not recommend anyone take pregnenolone either.Using pregnenolone (which is the grandmother of all steroid hormones) may elevate your DHEA and progesterone levels, and DHEA can increase estrogen and testosterone levels.

Let's play a game here. There is a potentially serious side effect that can be placed under control or wiped out altogether if you take Taurine or magnesium. This same potentially dangerous side effect is caused by both DHEA as well as its mother Mrs. Pregnenolone. Can you think of this side effect, anyone?

Well **** u cant win with anything then can you.. All i know is i dont think i have enough test because my sexdrive is shot to shit house.
 
Novedex XT - You'll have boners all the time esp in the morning.


By now, perhaps Gaspari have re-arranged thier ingredients to suit Australian rules? I know of US brands that do this to increase their market in countries that have stricter laws.
In other words, we may be getting a slightly altered product.

I may be wrong though, but i'm definitely not wrong with my information on the Gaspari brand (in particular Novedex) and customs. I've seen and read a customs letter to someone that had his Novedex seized with my own eyes.
This 'Etiocholeva Etiochol' was a problem in the product.

Actually I was talking about missing a beat…a heart beat that is.

According to Dr. Ray Sahelian, M.D, Heart palpitations, also called cardiac arrhythmias, are a disturbance in the regular rhythm of the heartbeat. Certain types of heart palpitations are life-threatening and a medical emergency while other types of heart palpitations are not of any major concern. Seek emergency medical help if you also feel faint, dizzy or lightheaded with chest pain or shortness of breath.

Taurine and magnesium are great heart rhythm regulators (apart from other good things that both do do).

PS: Shrek is right on the money when mentioning "bitch" tits. There's always a chance of getting gyno when one dabbles with AAS or precursors thereof.

So there is nothing i can do to increase my testosteorne levels... besides eat eggs and take zinc?

I am gong for blood tets soon i fear i ay have low levels :( fatique recovery fat gain sex drive.. all bad signs
 
man, I'm no expert like Fadi but I wouldn't bother with DHEA... I was reading about DHEA and pregnenolone (and spoke to Fadi about them on PM) since my friend who has lung problems, needs to use them.

Although they are precursors to testosterone, from what i've read, people who administered really high doses of them (1000 - 1500mg) still didn't see a significant rise in testosterone. And this is because apparently only a miniscule amount of DHEA is converted to test. DHEA supp seems to be only recommended to ppl who're actually low on DHEA.

Of course there is something you can do n00bs; take testosterone on a doctor's prescription. I believe you are in Sydney are you not? Mate if your doctor is too scared or thinks you're too young for testosterone or whatever else he tells you because he's worried, then you PM me and I will help you out (all legally and through the medical channels of course).

Please don't despair brother, there's always light at the end of the tunnel, that much I can guarantee you. I want to see a full set of abs on you n00bs, nothing less will do, period!
