What are the risks of using DHEA? Are there any studies and results that indicate near term or long term health risks for different dosages?
The well researched information on DHEA is not copious. The current risks are androgenic (male)effects such as acne, hair loss(male pattern baldness), hair development in male patterns(pelvis, chest, face) and deepening of the voice in women. There is a theoretical risk of prostate cancer in men– especially in families prone to prostate cancer and concern about the potential risk of breast and uterine cancer in women. Dosing information is currently not available relative to these risks.
