[QUOTE="Shawn, post: 278280, member: 15946"] i appreciate your input but i have not actually gone that far because at this point i figure doctors wouldn't be able to figure out the root cause. they'll just tell me i have "inflammation" because clearly something will come up. there might be one doctor out somewhere that can correlate my low DHEA to inflammation causing this (i would have to explain this all to him) but 99% are too stupid to figure that out. plus, i know my body. they don't. i'm sure they'll give me some other weird drug to cover it up. there is only 1-3 things causing this. they are the 3 hormones from the adrenal cortex: DHEA, cortisol, and aldosterone. for low DHEA, there is DHEA supplementation. for the cortisol issue, thankfully there is licorice root. finally, my low aldosterone can be increased via potassium. i think HCG does raise it but i'd rather just use straight DHEA and if i can't tolerate it for some reason (not just e2 as I can use an AI for that) but heart sides or some other weird shit, then i'll be forced to use HCG and other herbs with an AI. and i hate dealing with HCG because it is expensive and you have to refrigerate it. they should invent a version you don't have to refrigerate. it's taken me almost 20 years to figure this out. all the chinese doctors would just tell me weak Kidney energy (their version of Kidney isn't kidney but rather the adrenal glands). but i didn't know that until the one I see from time to time told me that. since then, I started doing research and ended up learning about the adrenal cortex. i never paid much attention to DHEA. I did not know it was an adrenal hormone til recently and voila it is low. this is why every chinese doc tells me my Kidney "yang" energy which is the masculine part is low. and DHEA is the masculine part. the Kidney yang provides all the yang for the body. I know that i'm going off track here for the "west" but the spleen/stomach system dominates digestion so that yang is weak because my Kidney yang is weak. that is their system. i could only figure this out by combining both systems because in the east, they just give you herbs but herbs aren't enough. in the west, they would never be able to figure anything out, they would just give me some drug to cover up my "inflammation". i sound like i have all the answers and i feel like i do, actually, after 20 years (at least for me). i'm mainly wondering if other people who have very low DHEA experience any of the symptoms i mentioned, including dry skin.
