i think because you're taking placenta that your hormones will balance out, i know a lot of the japanese nbe'ers take it for that

Obviously most people say it raises testosterone in women, but from what I read, there's contradictory evidence for that. Wouldn't it also raise estrogen? I need to look at what the studies say about supplemental DHEA and estrogen levels, assuming that the studies even bothered to look at estrogen.
Isabelle thought that DHEA could totally prevent hormone down regulation and stalling, but I didn't really understand her reasoning.
Does DHEA really force the body to create more hormones even when those hormones are down regulated, or is it like throwing flour and sugar all over the kitchen floor and expecting cakes to be spontaneously generated? Sometimes supplementing a precursor really does raise the levels of the hormones (or other bodily chemicals) that are downstream from it, but other times it does not. Does anyone know more about this? I really need to get reading.
