Does DHEA raise Estrogen or Cortisol?

[boyka2]

Was wondering if DHEA raises estrogen and/or cortisol levels or if it only raises test levels, also if it does how to prevent it. Thank you.

DHEA produced a significant rise in androgens levels, whereas HRT did not. Moreover, DHEA alone induced a significantly lower increase in estrogens and beta-endorphin levels and a higher decrease in cortisol levels than HRT.
