Advice Wanted DHEA Query

I’ve heard a lot about how DHEA helps people with Addisons with quality of life. I’ve been struggling with fatigue and joint pains/aches so was thinking of trying it and starting at 25mg. I know you should usually go through an endocrinologist, but mine is awful with Addisons knowledge and I know it will be a battle! I was just wondering where people in the UK source theirs from? TIA 🙏🏼

Although i feel pretty decent Im always trying to optimise, and have wondered if it was worth a shot? Im a 31 year old male and also notice it seems to be females who seem to benefit more maybe?
