I also have no labs to back this up. I know this.. my dick is nonexistent. I have zero libido. It’s barely coming back. Last dose was 6 days ago and I get small bits of libido here and there. Low dose DHEA was good though. Also no bloods.

No, I’m not. Fuck pregnenolone. It seems the effects are awesome and quickly wane, no matter what dosing protocol. I am done trying to figure this shit out. It also bloats me the fuck up. I have zero abs and legit look fat like I am carrying a baby. No shit. It blew me up like a balloon. It...

It’s not at all. It doesn’t taste. It’s just chalky.

No reason. I take life extension caps and break them open.

Came back to update… I abandoned pregnenolone because I thought it was causing ED for a short time when I in fact had slightly elevated prolactin due to a medication I was taking. I started back with 200mg ED. At about the 3 week mark something miraculous happened. Something clicked and I just...

Side note.. I’ve thrown in 50mg of OTC sublingual (capsules) DHEA the last two days and I’ve got a massive amount of clarity/mood boost from it. Im aware of placebo but this is different. Looks like I’ve got some bloods to draw eh?

We had my daughter after I had been on TRT for 5 years. No breaks, various T dosages. No ancillaries, no HCG, nothing. BUT- it took a year. We weren’t really planning but we weren’t exactly NOT trying to have a kid

I appreciate your feedback. My plan is just to stick to pregnenolone, 30mg ED OTC brand and then test in 5-6 weeks? Then titrate up.

Good point. Am I allowed to reference brands here? I have 3 brands, life extension, double woods and pure encapsulations. Been rolling with the LE brand but just got my pure encapsulations today. PE is 30mg, the other two are 100mg.

I also tried 25mg DHEA this morning and I got a massive amount of energy and clarity out of it. My only problem with these two is that they bloat me. I have a 6 pack and am on prep I know I didn’t get fat overnight. I look fucking fat right now. Fat and watery.

Yeah I was on HCG for like a year a long time ago. Haven’t been on since. I can’t fucking decide if I should try 15mg ED or 30mg ED. Everything I’ve read here is making me thinking 100mg ED. Nelson tan bloods and said 100mg brought him into low normal range if I remember correctly. And then...

I haven’t looked but I remember reading preg sulfate was 20 hours? I could be completely wrong. I thought it was super short??

I learned this the hard way with a anastrozole back in the day. Felt high E2 (without labs) take .25mg, feel better within 6 hours (uh oh). Overshoot my estradiol and then crash. I have done this many times which is why I don’t use an AI. I wholeheartedly agree about the steady state of...

Seems like a lot. I can’t remember the cost but from what I remember it didn’t seem cost effective. I have heard of guys using gonadorelin when coming off TRT, that’s about it.

What I do know is how I felt. Pregnenolone is doing something to me and I intend to find out. I will go low dose and slow, test and then titrate up if I feel that I need. I have read Nelson’s post about taking up tp 200mg a day and studies of men using 400-500mg a day. I read a very recent...

I understand placebo. I’ve been on TRT for as long as I have and wouldn’t be surprised if my preg levels and progesterone levels were tanked. Like I said, I’ll draw them. What I will do is back off and do 30mg every morning for 6 weeks and report back. At that time I’ll draw my DHEA-S...

HCG and gonadorelin are two completely different analogues, correct? My clinic tried to pitch me gonadorelin when the FDA cracked down on HCG. I said no.

I agree but I want to pinpoint things and know where I am at exactly instead of just guessing.

I was thinking this. I’ve actually had ED for two days. I think I may have over shot things. I am thinking about backing off to 25mg and seeing where I feel and then drawing my preg/progesterone levels in a month and going from there

I am taking life extension and opening the 100mg capsules.

Hey guys, I’ve been on TRT for 7 years. I am on 200mg of test cyp EW split in 2 shots (Monday and Thursday). No HCG, no AI. Last bloods were 8 weeks ago. TT was 1100, E2 sensitive 40. I forgot what my SHBG was but I was right in the middle. I feel good here. Recently, I’ve been experimenting...

Thanks Vince!

Hey guys, I’ve been reading and referencing ExcelMale for the last 5 years. It has greatly expanded my understanding of TRT and everything surrounding that. I do have a pregnenolone specific question that I was curious where to post. I have scoured EM for answers and I’d like to hear what some...
