DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) Capsules contain a naturally occurring hormone precursor produced by the adrenal glands. In the body, DHEA converts into small amounts of both estrogen and testosterone, supporting tissues that rely on these androgens. For menopausal and perimenopausal women, DHEA supplementation can support energy, mood, sexual function, muscle tone, immune function, and vaginal tissue health. It serves as a complementary addition to estradiol and progesterone for more complete hormonal support.
