Hi Mel,
After Prettymama's good experience, Susan and I really worked on understanding maca. We're not finished experimenting yet, but what we found confirms the idea that maca increases DHEA.
Maca will increase testosterone, DHT, and estrogens, because all those are made from DHEA.
Progesterone and cortisol are made from cholesterol directly, so maca will not change them.
