Should I Use DHEA Cream If I Have High Testosterone Level?
I had blood/saliva test to check my hormones ( I m 48 years old). My DHEA-s was very low for my age but my Testosterone was in the high normal range? I don t understand how that could be - also is it advisable for me to use a bio-identical DHEA cream with my testosterone level in he high range?
Hello, I read carefully your concern. It is not suggested to use DHEA-s preparation while the testosterone level is high. DHEA-s is a precursor of testosterone that is produced by adrenal gland. Your high testosterone level should be due to ovarian production of testosterone. That is why, using DHEA-s cream can raise more testosterone level.
