The DHEA is produced naturally by the body. Its levels reach their peak around the age of 25 years and then show a gradual decline.
The uptake of the hormone DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) in pill form can help women who are in menopause to avoid the unpleasant symptoms such as hot flashes. And not only that: according to Italian scientists, DHEA can give significant "push" in the sexual life of menopausal women. Experts even ask conducting thorough tests to determine if the new hormone therapy could be an alternative to conventional hormone replacement therapy taken many women in menopause.
Researchers at the University of Pisa in Italy studied 48 women who had menopause symptoms and concluded that taking low doses of DHEA hormone may improve sexual health of women and at the same time to relieve symptoms such as hot flashes and night sweats.
