DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone)

Adrenal steroid precursor that declines dramatically with age; the most abundant circulating steroid in young adults. Converted to androgens and estrogens in peripheral tissues. Explored for energy, mood, immune function, and bone density.

BioHack Track models DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) at a half-life of 12 hours, so every dose you log is decayed against that curve and the app shows what is still circulating — not just what you typed.

Reconstitution

Oral capsule; no reconstitution needed.

Storage

Store at room temperature.

Cautions

OTC supplement in the US but a prescription drug in some countries. Can increase androgens/estrogens — acne, hair loss, and hormonal imbalance possible. Hormone levels should be checked before and during use.

Track DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) in BioHack Track. Half-life, dose range and route come pre-filled from this library — log a dose and the app counts your vial down, models what is in your system, and puts it on the same chart as your labs and body composition.
