Dehydroepiandrosterone
("DHEA"), is a natural steroid prohormone produced from cholesterol by the
adrenal glands, the gonads, adipose tissue, brain and in the skin (by an
autocrine mechanism)]. DHEA is the precursor of androstenedione,
testosterone and estrogen. It is the most abundant hormone in the human
body. |
