How long you been on DHEA now?

I have been on it for 2 1/2 months now...so if this cycle didn't work (I am 9 dp iui) then the next cycle, I will have had it in my system over the magic 3 months...but I really hope this cycle worked!

My doc put me on dhea for my 2nd round. I had some acne, but that's about it. It went away eventually. It didn't give me any more eggs, but better quality, and I got my bfp that round.

Siblingwishes congrats big time ! You are giving me hope. THis is my third month now. Can I ask did you notice any chance in your period or ovulation time ? I am getting obsessed with anything I "think" may be different from before taking them

Not really, my period still sucked! Painful, heavy and long! O time, well the last two months I was on femara and then had the Ovidrel shot to trigger so yeah that was totally different!

It gave me more eggs yes, but not much more. The first one was 10 eggs, 6 mature. The 2nd round, 14 eggs, 7 mature.

But my embryos were better the 2nd round. However, I also did acupuncture for the 2nd round, so who knows. I did take dhea for ivf, yes. It was also with Inositol and Melatonin though, I think they're a combo thing for it to work well.

I took 3 pills of 25 mg a day. One at breakfast, one at lunch, one at dinner. I finished the 1st cycle and he put me on the dhea and as soon as af came, started my 2nd round, so not long.

Hey ladies......I am in a bit of a pickle here re DHEA. I ordered some from the States...about £40 worth.....they have just arrived. I was told to order the micronized version and to take 75mg a day.

Sooooo....... I have just looked at them....and they are called RegiMEN.......I didn't notice that the small print said they were for younger men......does this matter? Will I start growing stubble, scratching my ar&e and being really messy?

Do I have to get specific DHEA tablets for women?

Ingredients

DHEA 25mg per serving
Gelatine
magnesium Stearate
Microcrystalline cellulose
