Be careful: Dhea while over the counter is still a powerful supplement. It is a precursor for several important hormones, and should not be taken lightly or without careful monitoring. I am not familiar with that drug helping with conception as far as studies. Be careful depending on the dose as some significant side effects can occur when stopping. Also, be sure you are truly ready for pregnancy at 40.
