DHEA info

I posted this on the fertility forum yesterday and thought a lot of ladies over her might be interested, too. I decided even though my FSH is still good at 7, I am going to try the DHEA route. I have talked to many ladies that have had terrific results with it. Most buy theirs at DHEA *******. There is a difference between pharmacy grade vs vitamin stores from what I have been told. Yesterday's post follows:

I have taken a serious interest in DHEA. The results on aging ovaries and FSH levels have been amazing. I found a good link with other links on it's page. I think the most impressive is the # of older women waiting for an IVF cycle that became spontaneously pg while taking DHEA waiting for their IVF. It also decreases the # of chromosonal abnormalities. Good reading for those who are interested.

Thanks again.  I am still hoping for a BFP this month, but am going to look into it anyway.  Now I just have to sort out what it is...lol.  I am assuming some sort of vitamen or supplement for the post.  If I don't get BFP this month, or God forbid, I do and its another loss, I am willing to try just about anything.  I appreciate the info!

Absolutely. The ladies in that article were all scheduled for IVF due to age/egg quality. The dr had them take DHEA for at least 2-3 mos b4 sched their cycle. The amazing thing is how many conceived spontaneously that did not b4 taking the DHEA. They didn't give the % of full term, but did say that it reduced chromosomal abnomalities. That is the #1 cause for mc. I am looking forward to trying it. I just wish it worked quicker, lol.

THanks for the info Tina.  My OB seems to think my primary reason that I keep miscarrying is older eggs.  From what you know, does it sound like DHEA might be a good thing for me to try?  No problem conceiving, just carrying.

Thanks again for taking the time to post this, and sticky baby dust to you this month!
