DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) Capsules are a dietary supplement designed to support hormone production and overall well-being. DHEA is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the adrenal glands and serves as a precursor to other important hormones such as testosterone and estrogen. These capsules are often used by adults seeking to boost energy, support immune function, enhance mood, and help maintain hormonal balance, particularly during times of stress, aging, or hormonal decline.

DHEA works by supplying the body with a vital building block needed for the production of sex hormones and adrenal hormones. This supplementation can assist in improving mental clarity, increasing stamina, and supporting healthy bone density and muscle strength by ensuring hormonal pathways are well-nourished.

DHEA Capsules should not be used by individuals with hormone-sensitive conditions such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, or endometriosis without medical supervision. It is also advised against for those with liver issues, adrenal gland tumors, or certain psychiatric conditions. Always speak with a healthcare provider before beginning supplementation, especially if you are on other medications or have underlying health concerns.

DHEA can interact with medications that influence hormone levels, such as corticosteroids, hormonal contraceptives, or hormone replacement therapies. It may also affect the action of antidepressants, blood pressure medicines, and anti-diabetic drugs. To avoid complications, consult your healthcare provider before combining DHEA with other treatments.

Some people may experience side effects like acne, oily skin, mood changes, headaches, or irregular menstrual cycles. Long-term or high-dose use can lead to hormone imbalances, hair thinning or excessive growth, and breast discomfort. If you experience significant side effects or suspect that the supplement is affecting your health, it’s important to stop use and talk to your doctor.

Hormonal shifts caused by DHEA may interfere with pregnancy maintenance or infant development. Expectant and nursing mothers should only use DHEA under strict medical guidance, if at all.

Store this medication at 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C) and away from heat, moisture and light. Keep all medicine out of the reach of children. Throw away any unused medicine after the beyond use date. Do not flush unused medications or pour down a sink or drain.
