I used to be below 100 too, and it takes me 150 mg/day to normalize it. It'd probably be best to ramp up slowly to see how you react to it.
This is what the LEF site says about DHEA:
"DHEA is a natural steroidal hormone secreted by the adrenal gland, gonads, and brain (Maninger 2009). Although women usually have less DHEA than men, both sexes lose DHEA over time, suggesting an age-related decline (Labrie 2010). Peak levels are typically reached when women are in their 30s, after which they begin to lose approximately 2% per year. Decreased levels of DHEA are associated with cancer, diabetes, lupus, psychiatric illness (Genazzani 2010), insomnia, pain, and disability (Morrison 2000)."
"DHEA has been shown to improve mood, neurological function, immune function, energy, feelings of well-being, and the maintenance of muscle and bone mass (Kenny 2010; Weiss 2009). A combination of DHEA and pregnenolone has been shown to improve memory (Ritsner 2010). DHEA may also improve insulin sensitivity and triglyceride levels (Genazzani 2010; Casson 1995)."
