Re: testosterone and DHEA when trying to get pregnant?

[Guest guest]

I would think as long as it si bioidentical and you NEED it ther is no

risk. MOst of the risks listen on hormones are for people that abuse

them and take more than their body needs.

I used to have highish testosterone but when I started Armour (before I

introduced cortisol even) it plumetted. I don't understand why. DHEA was also

highish before Armour. I wonder if there is something I can do to increase

testosterone back you my usual levels without supplementing...

Many thanks for answering my question!

If I was young again....and trying to get

pregnant...the risk of teratologic effects....would

scare the **** out of me...and I would definitely NOT

take it......because...for me.....if the child was to

have been born defective in any way .....I would

always feel guilty that maybe that had something to

do with it... but then...that's just me
