[QUOTE="Anonymon, post: 225036, member: 42608"] That was without the DHEA. I take 400mg of pregnenolone daily in the morning and it’s helped immensely with all my low cortisol symptoms. I don’t think I’ve tried that brand but I’ve tried other adrenal cortex brands before and that’s what lead me to taking my low cortisol more seriously as I felt better day 1 on that, then you get adapted to it fairly quickly. I’ve tried pretty much everything when it comes to cortisol. All the herbs, meds, basically all of it outside of slow release cortisol meds and some of the heavier hitting ones like prednisone. Pregnenolone at that dose gave me the most benefits with the least sides. Hydrocortisone helps but also has a lot of bad sides and preg gives me the benefits without the sides. Cortisone acetate was the best overall but hard to source. Currently on the beginning of the second week of lowering my test dose by 30%ish. At least within the first week, I had symptoms of my cortisol being higher like when I take the meds, but we’ll see if that levels out, as typically I did better on more test. Test dose lower the adrenal gland response to CRH, but plenty of guys on TRT also have issues with higher cortisol, like potentially Nelson as I recall, so it’s pretty individual. [/QUOTE]
