What is 7-Keto DHEA?
(7-keto-dehydroepiandrosterone)
7-Keto DHEA is a metabolite of DHEA that does not convert to testosterone or estrogen, making it an ideal choice for patients who want adrenal and metabolic support without androgenic or estrogenic effects. It is studied for energy, metabolism, and immune support. Because it does not convert to sex hormones, it avoids common DHEA side effects like acne and hirsutism.

How adrenal hormone therapy works
Day 1
A US-licensed physician reviews your energy, mood, and adrenal function goals, and discusses which adrenal hormone fits your needs.
1Week 1
Start your adrenal hormone in the morning. Most people do not feel immediate effects, this is about rebuilding your adrenal reserve over time.
2Weeks 2-4
Some patients notice improved energy or mood. Others take 6-8 weeks to notice change. Your physician monitors your response.
3Month 2-3
Check-in. Your physician reviews energy, mood, sleep quality, and any androgenic side effects (acne, hirsutism). Adjust dose if needed.
4Beyond
Continue your adrenal hormone as long as it helps. Your physician reassesses every 3-6 months and discusses long-term use.

The science of adrenal hormones
7-Keto DHEA is studied for thermogenesis (heat production) and metabolic rate enhancement. Some research suggests it may support weight management and energy in aging adults.
Well-tolerated with fewer androgenic side effects than DHEA itself. Rare side effects include mild headache or agitation if dosed too high. Take in the morning to avoid sleep disruption.
Learn moreImportant safety information and common side effects
DHEA, pregnenolone, and 7-Keto DHEA are prescription hormones that support adrenal function. Common effects include acne, facial hair in women (hirsutism from DHEA and pregnenolone), mood changes, insomnia if dosed too high or taken late in the day, and mild headache. DHEA and pregnenolone can convert to testosterone and estrogen, so they carry similar hormonal risks. 7-Keto DHEA does not convert to sex hormones and is generally well-tolerated. None are prescribed with hormone-sensitive cancers, and women taking DHEA or pregnenolone who can become pregnant must use reliable contraception. Tell your physician if you experience severe mood changes, severe acne, or significant sleep disruption.

Frequently asked questions
How do I take 7-Keto DHEA Capsules?
Taken by mouth, once a day, in the morning. The starting prescription is 1 capsule (10 mg) each time. Your physician sets your own dose and it is printed on your label.
How much arrives in each shipment?
30 capsules at the starting strength, shipped to your door from a licensed US pharmacy.
Why choose 7-Keto DHEA over regular DHEA?
If you want adrenal and metabolic support without sex hormone conversion (testosterone, estrogen), 7-Keto DHEA is ideal. You avoid acne, facial hair, and mood changes associated with DHEA's conversion to sex hormones. Your physician helps you choose based on your goals.
Do adrenal hormones give you energy immediately?
No. These are hormones your body slowly converts to other hormones and neurotransmitters. Effects develop gradually over weeks to months. Some people feel changes in energy and mood within 2-4 weeks; others take 8-12 weeks. Patience is essential.
Will I get acne on DHEA or pregnenolone?
Some people do, particularly at higher doses. This is because both can convert to testosterone, which stimulates oil production. If acne develops, tell your physician. You may lower the dose, switch to 7-Keto DHEA (which does not convert to sex hormones), or try a different form.
Can I use adrenal hormones long-term?
Yes, but your physician monitors you regularly. Adrenal hormones work best with good sleep, nutrition, and stress management. Your physician reassesses every 3-6 months to ensure long-term benefit and safety.
