[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 136154, member: 15043"] Good questions, I wonder the same about myself. My DHEA has always been about at the top of the range, before TRT, and during. I’ve had my pregnenolone tested, and it always comes back at basically zero. It will just say <5. I’ve heard that the pregnenolone test is unreliable, but then I’ve seen many people get the test done, then start supplementing with pregnenolone, and their level on the test goes up. So it seems like it at least can pickup some level of this hormone. Whether that’s accurate or not, who knows. But I’ve had the test done many times, and it always comes back <5, while I’ve seen many others report having levels like 40, or 80, and in the 100’s. So the fact that mine keeps coming back so low, makes me think I need to supplement. The main reason I want to supplement with it is because I have a ton of brain fog, my memory is really bad, I’m always word finding, my eyes feel like they have a hard time focusing, I feel like nature doesn’t feel or look as beautiful as it used to. These are all things that pregnenolone supposedly can improve. What made me want to try transdermal pregnenolone, opposed to oral or sublingual, was the fact that I just listened to a podcast with Dr. Crisler where he mentions that he puts every single one of his patients on transdermal pregnenolone. He says he likes it better over oral because it reacts in the body differently, and some of the side effects can be avoided, or minimized. He says he just has better luck with transdermal. So I think it wouldn’t be the worst idea for you to give transdermal pregnenolone a try, starting at a very low dosage. Also, I’ve tried taking pure encapsulations pregnenolone. I tried taking 10mg per day, but it seemed like it made my brain fog worse, and I didn’t sleep as good. I only trialed it for like a week. It kind of turned me off from pregnenolone. But I’m gonna give transdermal a shot, and just start out with a very low dose, and titrate up if needed, and see how it goes. Here’s the podcast I was talking about with Dr. Crisler.
