[QUOTE="Anonymon, post: 230859, member: 42608"] There are the theoretical pathways of conversion, and what actually happens to you when you try it, and in my case my DHEA wasn’t up. I had that tested throughout. When I was on DHEA at 50-75mg my DHEA-Sulfate was in the high 200s low 300s as I recall over time. Dropping that but on all that preg and I was in the 90’s, just under the reference range for DHEA. I noticed a big difference in stopping DHEA vs taking it and although mentally I liked DHEA, I‘m better off without it with my low cortisol as they compete. On preg, I didn’t notice any of the things I’d notice on DHEA, and my DHEA levels on blood tests were not elevated. They were even a hair low. For transdermal, I seemed to adapt to it pretty quickly. It made me mentally feel calmer and have an elevated mood but that was most of it, then nothing. I was on that plenty of times throughout this but stopped and didn’t even notice it was gone at that point. For oral, everything was better at a higher dose. Libido, mood, energy, I could sweat when needed. Transdermal, I went up to 75mg a day as I recall. It was nice at first but then tapered off. With oral, there was a little tapering but it was mostly just the same indefinitely. My E2 wasn’t elevated on preg from what it was at before. Little bit of water retention and it did increase my heart rate 1bmp per 100mg, which isn’t much. I’m coming at this from PFS, so my conversion pathways may be altered from some folks. [/QUOTE]
