High Pregnenolone - NOT SUPPLEMENTING??

[Maca]

Hey! I recently got my Pregnenolone tested and I came back what I think is very high. I am not taking any pregnenolone just testosterone.

I suffer with brain fog and fatigue still after starting TRT and wonder if this has something to do with it.

Any thoughts would be great as I can't find much on Google apart from:

"High pregnenolone levels may be caused by an inherited condition called congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). CAH causes a deficiency or dysfunction in the enzymes required to convert pregnenolone into steroid hormones. This can cause a deficiency of cortisol and an overabundance of male hormones or androgens."

MY CORTISOL

Although it states I should have an "overabundance of male hormones" and I have low T (although the above were taken while on TRT)

Are you taking biotin?

 

[Vince Carter]

Pregnenolone is poor test and/or tough to get a solid result, most no one tests Preg. I wouldn't put much stock in to it.

Are you taking biotin?

I belive so, I was taking a multivitamin at the time that contained it - Multi-Vitamin Elite (Certified for Sport): Two multi-vitamin / mineral formulas – for A.M. and P.M. – that support high performance nutrition*

Biotin is well known to interfere with blood tests.
