[QUOTE="Castaneda, post: 144964, member: 36807"] For anyone that's interested in following this research with me, here is the article I came across before deciding to start Prog + DHEA: [URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/13586178']6-Ketoprogesterone and its biological actions[/URL] The results are summarized in Table 6. If you go far enough down this rabbit hole, you'll find that this combo has multiple biological effects, including anti-cortisol, anti-viral, anti-mutagenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-endotoxin, antimicrobial, anti-cancer, and more. I have a feeling it's a piece of the puzzle that is missing in a lot of men that suppress their endogenous steroid hormone production with T therapy. The other clue for me has been my consistently high Pregnenolone levels (when tested). While I do consume a diet higher in fat / cholesterol, Pregnenolone levels should not be high if it is converting properly to Progesterone and DHEA. I remember always having bad effects when taking Pregnenolone. It (subjectively) feels like it is causing a rise in cortisol. [/QUOTE]
