Today, a patient said something that stopped me in my tracks:
“I don’t feel depressed… I just don’t feel like myself anymore.”

That sentence usually points me in one direction.
💊 DHEA.

DHEA is an adrenal hormone — the parent hormone for estrogen and testosterone.
When it drops (often from chronic stress, aging, or burnout), women may notice:

  • Low energy that rest doesn’t fix
  • Flat mood or loss of motivation
  • Decreased libido
  • Brain fog
  • Poor stress tolerance
  • Faster muscle loss

This isn’t weakness.
It’s biochemistry.

Compounded DHEA allows us to:
✔️ Start low (even 2.5–5 mg)
✔️ Adjust based on symptoms or saliva testing
✔️ Support hormones gently — not aggressively

When we support DHEA correctly, the body often remembers how to function again.

She looked at me and said softly:
“So maybe I’m not broken?”

No.
You’re just depleted — and that can be restored.

👉 If you feel “off” but can’t explain why, DHEA is worth evaluating through symptoms or saliva testing.

Until tomorrow,
