I have done several saliva tests and have found that when I supplement with DHEA, it raises only testosterone, which i do not want. I am not supplement with 7-keto right now, but I did for 8 months last year and my dhea-s level went from 2.7 to 4.5 which is a change, but not that big (at this rate it will take years to reach my desired levels). At that time i was taking 50mg three times a day. I have ordered 7-keto cream and plan to use it for a few months. I know this way is better since it bypasses the liver. My concern with 7-keto supplements is that there is no long-term research on it, and it is said that it may lead to breast, ovarian and prostate cancer. Also, I've tried pregnenolone in the past, and even at low doses it made me very irritable, I'm guessing it probably was raising testosterone too.
Does anyone know of anything that is more likely to only raise DHEA than testosterone?
