What Causes DHEAS to skyrocket?

[GorillaHead]

metformin decrease dhea-s, but metformin is antitestosteron.

I think its only anti test if u dont get enough carbs

more fat = more cholesterol = more hormones​

Above ref range dhea-s here too. A few theories as to why it can be high but need some corrective action?

500mg metformin before bed give me very quality sleep, If you awake or not tired before bed, metformin acts like a anticortisol agent, suddenly you get trans, high dhea-s low shbg related insulin resistance, berberine is not strong, but prescription dose of metformin is quite a lot, 250mg is enough

Why take it before bed? It dramatically lowers blood sugar levels so would probably explain the worsened sleep.
Best to take before/with carb heavy meals throughout the day

@GorillaHead

I feel there is a link between:
adrenal gland problems
potassium
DHEA-S
Insulin
Blood Sugar (metabolic/Hormone imbalance)

see if you can do any digging

prescription is with meal or before meal, but I try all medications different times for observation. Metformin is best sleep agent for about one week, but after a meanwhile body can get resistance for it.

You get trans? Why would dheas go up if cortisol is down?
Dude metformin doesnt make u insulin resistant wtf

yes, we take for this purpose. I didn't say different. anticortisol activity of metformin is before sleep(*) . dhea is not bad, it is protective but if the fire(cortisol) is a lot, dhea is high(according hans)

So ive been exploring all sorts of things lately.
Did yall know that biotin is needed for zinc homeostasis and that countless anecdotes on the internet claim biotin made them break out.

then theres is b5 pantothenic acid. Countless annecdotes claim it stops acne and it causes hairloss (persumably in its competition with biotin)
Whats interesting enough is women have claimed biotin causes hiristuism, this made me think adrenals are involved. They sure are.

Look at this study here b5 defeciency in this secnario causes a higher rise in dheas.

I have a high dhea-s, as well as dandruff, acne and a little hair loss.

Does this mean that taking b5 and b7 is a cure for these problems? I have been taking B complex for a while and have not noticed much of a difference.
