DHEA and Sexual Health

DHEA doesn’t only treat sexual dysfunction in women, but also in men with ED. As a building block for testosterone, the key male sex hormone, DHEA may be able to ramp up sexual power in men with ED. Strong scientific evidence supports the beneficial effects of DHEA on this condition:
1. In men with ED, DHEA therapy at an oral dose of 50 mg daily for 6 months improves scores in International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF). [281]
2. In patients with ED who have hypertension, DHEA treatment is associated with statistically higher mean scores in IIEF. [282]
3. In men with ED, DHEA supplementation improves sexual interest, arousal, orgasm and sexual frequency. [283]
4. In men with ED caused by chronic prostate inflammation, DHEA supplementation significantly improves sexual function. [284]
