DHEA is a Powerful Prohormone

1-DHEA is a prohormone to 1-Testosterone (dihydroboldenone). It is commonly sold under the brand name of “1-Andro” (1-Androsterone). 1-Andro is a non 17-aa prohormone requiring two steps in its conversion to 1-Test. Reduction of the 17-ketone functional group by 17b-HSD produces 1-Androstenediol while oxidation of the 3-hydroxyl group by 3a-HSD produces 1-Androstenedione. Both of these metabolites may have some intrinsic anabolic/androgenic properties, but it is their further conversion to 1-Testosterone that produces the anabolic muscle building effects seen from 1-Andro.1-Andro appears weak structurally. It requires two enzymatic conversions to become the target hormone 1-Testosterone.

1- Androsterone (1-DHEA) is a non-methylated (non 17aa) pro-steroid that must convert to 1-androstenediol (1-AD), 1-androstenedione (original 1-AD) and/or 1-testosterone to be active. The double bond in the 1st position seems to slightly enhance its ability to resist excretion by the liver.

1-Androsterone occurs naturally in the body, and is a naturally occurring metabolite of DHEA. (2) The 17b-HSD enzyme converts 1-Androsterone to 1-Androstenediol, and the 3b-HSD converts it to 1-Androstenedione. Both of these 1-AD metabolites can then be converted to 1-Testosterone. Although the 1-AD metabolites are known to have some anabolic and androgenic effects on their own, 1-Testosterone is probably where most of the effects come from with this steroid.

1-Androsterone (and primarily its metabolites) have relatively potent androgenic effects, therefore gyno is almost never an issue. However, because of the androgenic potency, this compound could pose a mild hair loss risk for those prone to MPB. Because this steroid is non-17aa there should be less concern about it negatively affecting the HDL/LDL ratio.

Dosing

The dosing one chooses to work with varies greatly on whether they are stacking this compound with other anabolics or running it solo. Generally with 1-DHEA 300-600mg a day is the most popular dosage, however experienced users with past pro-hormone or designer steroid experience can experiment with dosages in upwards of 700-1000mg. The added benefit may be negligible at this dosage and the likely-hood of side effects sharply increases..

Since this compound is not as hard on your body cycles can be extended up to 8 weeks in length with 6 weeks being the most common. Most users will begin to notice the effects by the third week in the form of muscle hardness/increased strength. Novice users should always stay within the general dosing amounts and not exceed 6 weeks in cycle length, although more experienced users can safely run 1-DHEA for 8 weeks.

You should split up your dosages into 2-3 different times throughout the day, ideally separated by 5-6 hours (or 8 hours if two daily dosages). For the ideal results, take your largest dosage 45 minutes to one hour before your workout session.

Side Effects

Side effects with 1-DHEA aren’t common when used stand alone, however many users experience marked lethargy from this compound. Due to it having significant androgenic potency and the inability to convert to estrogen, water retention and gynecomastia are rarely reported. The level of androgenicity this compound has may also pose as a hair loss risk for users prone to male pattern baldness, however reports of this are not many. With any designer steroid or pro-hormone side effects can occur and in most cases they’re avoidable by following proper on-cycle support guidelines. The following are a listing of some other possible side effects with 1-Androsterone/1-DHEA:

Decreased Libido/Sexual Function
Anxiety / Stimulated Feeling
Aggression
Slightly increased Blood Pressure
Back Pumps (Dull pain in back after/during workouts)

Stacking

1-Androsterone will stack well with almost any compound. For more dramatic gains in size and strength it is recommended to stack this compound with an aromatizing steroid or possibly one of the progestational compounds listed elsewhere.

1-DHEA is a popular stacker, this is because it’s relatively mild and non-methylated which allows users to stack this substance with popular methylated anabolics such as Halodrol. Typically users would want to stack this compound with lower androgenicl substances to provide a balanced anabolic/androgenic effect. 1-DHEA can be utilized during either a bulk or a cut. Below is a short list of several anabolics 1-DHEA is commonly stacked with:

Methylated Compounds (H-Drol, P-mag, Superdrol, etc)
Non-Methylated Compounds (11-OXO, 4-DHEA, Furazadrol, M-LMG, etc)
Post Cycle Therapy
