Yes I saw that. As with ANYTHING I read, read, read.

"Experts at Harvard Health advise that doses up to 50 mg/day are generally safe for up to two years, but pregnant women, those with PCOS, or individuals with hormone-sensitive cancers should avoid it." "A 2025 meta-analysis showed that taking ≥ 50 mg/day of DHEA significantly increases testosterone and estradiol (estrogen) levels in postmenopausal women."

Recent research (2025–2026) highlights the potential for DHEA-S (a natural steroid made by your adrenal glands) as a new way to help manage asthma.
Airway Relaxation: DHEA-S helps open up your airways by relaxing the muscles around them.Less Swelling: It lowers the inflammation and allergic reactions that cause asthma attacks.Protection: In a large 2026 study of over 4,000 U.S. adults, higher levels of DHEA-S were linked to lower rates of asthma and fewer asthma attacks.

Women's Health: Studies show DHEA may improve lung function and asthma control specifically in women with low starting androgen levels.Targeting Inflammation: Researchers at centers like the IU School of Medicine are studying slow-release DHEA. Unlike standard steroid inhalers, DHEA reduces swelling without causing the harsh side effects often seen with typical glucocorticosteroid medications.Delivery Methods: Clinical trials are investigating an inhaled mist form of DHEA, which delivers the hormone straight to the lungs.
