DHEA is involved in the hormone pathway.
From a graph I have here, it gets converted to either androstenediol or androstenedione.
Either of those get converted to Testosterone, and then therefore either DHT or to estrogens.
So, it seems maybe that's the mechanism - more DHEA gets you more test, and if you can push the extra test into estrogen, it should have pro-breast effect.
I think that's what Lotus was using as a hypothesis.
