Dehydroepiandrosterone, more commonly known as DHEA, and its sulfated metabolite DHEA sulfate (DHEAS) are the most abundant hormones in the human body. Like many other hormones, DHEA is predominantly synthesized in the adrenals, small triangular glands that sit on top of our kidneys. DHEA is also synthesized in the brain, both male and female reproductive organs, and adipose tissue, a form of specialized connective tissue that makes up about 25% of our body weight. The body makes DHEA using the precursor pregnenolone, another naturally occurring steroid hormone derived from cholesterol.
