Brief Answer:
Hormones

Detailed Answer:
The DHEA, Testosterone, Progesterone and Estradiol are important hormones related to the reproductive and sexual system.

I am not aware of the words Letco, Niosh and Vicel. Aliquot as you may know too refers to equal quantities.

The above mentioned hormones are best taken under medical supervision, by prescription only , preferably by endocrinologists who are experts in hormone treatment. Otherwise they can have harmful effects on the body
