Extremely low Pregnenolone!

[Thebigone]

I’ve gotten pretty much every hormone test you could think of but completely forgot about Pregnenolone. I’m on TRT/hcg and my doctor usually tests all my hormones including progesterone but somehow negated pregnenolone. So I ordered the test and just got my results back and wow!

Pregnenolone LC/MS <5 range 22-237

Now I have to look up all the symptoms of low Pregnenolone. I’ve got a bottle of Douglas Labs Pregnenolone I’ll start ASAP. What’s the recommended dosage? Anyone ever have low levels and supplement with it? If so what were the benefits?

Thanks

Update:
I was looking through some old lab work and I noticed in May 2017 I had pregnenolone testedand it was normal
26 range 13-208 nd/dL

Back in 2015 my progesterone was about 4x the range but I was on Deca back then which increase it.

So this is all of that within only one year my pregnenolone went from 26 to <5. My TRT regimen has been the exact same so I’m puzzled.

Going to get a progesterone test done this week as well.

Bumping this cuz I’m curious to hear more from the experts. Do you take HCG? Test with anti estrogen without HCG will shut you down

Yes I take hcg at 250iu 3x/wk along with my TRT. Normally I use low dose arimidex but this last Time around I dropped it and my estrogen was high
43 range <29

I wonder if the high estrogen caused the significant drop in pregnenolone?

Iconic Formulations makes a topical preg if the oral does not bring your levels up.

Well... I never had pregnenolone tested, but I had read about its production being suppressedp by AAS and TRT. Decided to start supplementing 50mg per day and just noticed a sense of overall more well being. After running out, I gradually started feeling a little more down.

So I just kept it going. I'm using 100mg caps now, but I'm guessing that might be too much.

There was this company selling topical pregnenolone
a long time ago which claimed prgnenolone helped trenbolone induced bad mood, anxiety etc. Never tried it but maybe someone here has.
