Describe DHEA in females
Give this one a try later!
The level of DHEA commonly normalizes in a younger patient as cortisol
normalizes.
In Younger patients, DHEA is not always replaced. It is important to fix
any problems, such as long-term stress, which can lower DHEA levels in
young females, and then the DHEA will normalize in most cases.
The dosing should be guided by test results of bowel chemistry. This is
specifically related to cortisol levels and serum levels of this hormone. But the
most common dosage is 10 mg to 100 mg by mouth of the slower standard
release preparation. It may be used Orally or transdermally, but the
most common route of administration is my mouth.
DHEA is made by the adrenal glands with a small amount being made by
the brain and skin. DHEA makes estrogen and testosterone. It begins to
decline in the late 20s. By the age of 70 the body only makes about 1/4 of
the amount of DHEA that It made earlierstress levels can reduce DHEA
