Deskripsyon 4-DHEA se yon natirèlman ki pa methylated (ki pa 17aa) pro-esteroyid. 4-DHEA, tankou DHEA, mande pou yon pwosesis konvèsyon 2 etap ki enplike 3b-HSD ak 17b-HSD konvèti li nan Androstenedione / androstenediol, ak Lè sa a, testostewòn. Ki sa ki fè 4-DHEA yon ti kras diferan de DHEA se yon kosyon doub nan pozisyon an 4th olye ke 5th la. Sa fè 4-DHEA mwens estwojenik pa pa aji dirèkteman sou reseptè a estwojèn tankou DHEA te jwenn fè.

Description 4-DHEA is a naturally occurring non-methylated (non-17aa) pro-steroid. 4-DHEA, like DHEA, requires a 2 step conversion process involving 3b-HSD and 17b-HSD to convert it to Androstenedione/androstenediol, and then testosterone. What makes 4-DHEA slightly different from DHEA is a double bond in the 4th position rather than the 5th. This makes 4-DHEA less estrogenic by not acting directly upon the estrogen receptor like DHEA has been found to do.
