So dr calkin wamted me to start dhea last dec during my intial consult. I was in the 20 percentile. He chnahed up my protocol increased my dose frequency amd added hcg. So i was hesitiant to make all of those chanhes at one time. I have been slowy adopting them so i could rule out any problems esay enough. Hcg, cant tell a thing other than my nuts are slightly bigger, but staying on it.
I added the dhea 45 days ago or so. Not sure my sleep is any better or worse so nothing of significance there. I seem to be less edgy and fixated in things that oiss me off. Big notice is change in LBM. No other changes in diet or workout, but for sure i have less body fat. Weight up a few pounds, 6-7,but pants and shirts still fit. I have a hard time on belly injections, in front or love handles now.
So it must be the 30mg nightly of dhea.
just a report of what it has done for my, your mileage may vary
 
That sounds pretty positive and 30mg/D is on the higher end I think, glad you're tolerating pretty well and im delighted in your conservative approach and trying things a bit at a time in isolation.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
