I could only I could only find Dehydropiandrosterone so I guess that the question was worded badly. Anyway, Dehydroepiandrosterone is a 19-carbon endogenous natural steroid hormone. It is the major secretory steroidal product of theadrenal glands and is also produced by the gonads and the brain. DHEA is the most abundant circulating steroid in humans.

Hydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands, gonads, and brain. It serves as a precursor for the production of other hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen. DHEA levels decline with age and have been associated with various health conditions.
