								The health maintenance  system is 
								founded on the balance of  androgens 
								(included precursors and derived from 
								Testosterone)
								
								The 
								crucial role of testosterone in the prevention 
								of ageing diseases was demonstrated by Dr 
								Georges Debled  at the Dallas' congress 
								devoted to ageing in 1992.

								Thereafter a true 
								passion seized  many
								
								doctors salesmen of youth 
								who prescribe all
								
								
								kinds of hormones, without respecting the 
								precautionary principle and serious scientific 
								foundation.
								
								The 
								study of individual biochemistry guides the 
								treatment because each one ages at its manner. 
								The 
								
								biochemical study 
								 
								 makes it possible to 
								determine the amount necessary to take, 
								according to the quantity of missing hormone and 
								according interactions that this treatment will 
								start on secretion of other hormones.
								This 
								page develops in short some current knowledge on 
								the hormonal "anti aging" treatment “. Let us 
								see initially some principles on DHEA, growth 
								hormone (GH), thyroxin and cortisone. 
								
								
								
								 
WARNING : 
								 
								 
								
								
								When there is no symtom there is no disease 
								and if there is no disease a hormonal treatment 
								is not necessary
								
								
								
DHEA
								
								
								DHEA has no sexual 
								effect in man
								DHEA  is not a 
								hormone. The hormonal receptor of  DHEA was 
								never shown.
								DHEA is a 
								biochemical precursor of testosterone 
								
								
								
								(of which the 
								cellular receptor is universal).This 
								transformation into testosterone is realizable 
								only by a 
								specific enzymatic 
								path in 
								the cells that “produce” testosterone.
								
								T
he 
								introduced DHEA in the organism is transformed a 
								little into testosterone but especially into 
								“androsterone” which has light androgenic 
								properties.
								Introduced DHEA 
								is also transformed into a series of biochemical 
								components.
								Use of the DHEA 
								will never replace the effect of the “finished” 
								hormone, the testosterone.
								DHEA is not a 
								“mysterious hormone”. It is a natural molecule, 
								as sugar. Its molecular composition is known 
								since its discovery by Butenandt in 1936 which 
								received the Nobel Prize for this discovery that led to the synthesis of testosterone.
								
								DHEA does not 
								have any sexual action in man.
								There exist 
								counter-indications for DHEA (breast cancer, 
								pregnancy,  prostate problems )
								
								To prescribe a 
								standard daily dose of 50 or 25 milligrams acts 
								against all senses and is a negative direction. 
								Any treatment must be adapted. 10 milligrams of 
								DHEA per day is already much.
								As the DHEA is 
								transformed into many distinct chemical 
								components, it is necessary to check these 
								various transformations by checking these 
								chemical molecules not only in blood but 
								also 
								their metabolites  in the urine. 
								. 
								
								Simple blood tests 
								for DHEA are not enough to understand the 
								control of the treatment.
								
								
								
								In the Nineties 
								certain authors wonder whether the DHEA was not 
								the Fountain of Youth? 
								In 2003 
								a scientific publication (followed by others) 
								wonders: “Is 
								the Fountain of Youth dried up?” (download).
								
								
								
								
								Growth hormone (GH)
								(is not an anti aging treatment ! Be 
								prudent!) 
								 
								
								
								There exist dwarves 
								centenaries 
								(who do not secrete growth hormone) whereas 
								giants (who secrete too much growth hormone) do 
								not exceed fifty years.
								
								Very recent studies 
								show the 
								negative effect of the growth 
								hormone on longevity:

								Patients with congenital deficiency of IGF-I

								consequently enhances cancer growth.

								This finding 
								implicates a 
								negative effect of Growth 
								hormone on longevity 
								!
								
								
								Administration 
								of growth hormone can be advised only after 
								having practiced a specific biological 
								clarification and functional  specific 
								tests to practice preferably in department of 
								endocrinology. Administration of growth hormone 
								cannot be made in a random way, as it is too 
								often seen (even under pretext small amount)
								
								
								
								Thyroxin
								
								Administration of this hormone is indicated 
								only in hypothyroidism that is a well-known 
								disease.  Treatment 
								is not justified in  absence of specific 
								symptoms.
								
								
								Cortisone
								
								Administration of this 
								hormone is indicated only in  
								hormonal insufficiencies.
								
								Treatment is not 
								justified in  absence of specific symptoms.
