Answer #1

Tribulus has been used for many years around the world to treat infertility and increase libido and more recently for bodybuilding to increase strength and size it works increasing (LH) Lutenizing hormone, a pituitary hormone that stimulates testosterone production in the male testis. In females it can produce or increase ovulation well.

Tribulus and androstene elevate testosterone levels in blood, so they are intended for men and not for women. DHEA will not help in any way, it is useless. I would suggest you plan a good diet with a lot of proteins and as supplements stay with the basic ones, protein powders and amino acids. I don´t suggest you take creatine as there is some evidence that it can be harmful to the body in excess.
