Anyone out there used DHEA

[blossom73]

Hi am just wanting to get some feedback good and bad on your experience with DHEA.4
I am a poor responder to IVF and my FS suggested that i should start taking it next cycle if we are not succesful this cycle.
Also how long do you have to be on it for for it to start working?
Was the egg quality and results better?

I took it - did nothing for me - neither in terms of qualility or quantity of eggs. It also gave me a few chin whiskers (apparently a common side effect) which I now have to tweeze out. I was on it for a bit over 3 months which is what they want.

I know some people have luck with it - so I say it's worth trying keeping in mind it's not always the magic answer us poor responders are looking for.
