How many have had their pregnenolone checked?

Who has checked your pregnenolone levels? Did supplementing with preg help bring levels up? If so what form and dose? Also, has anyone had low pregnenolone and then added HCG to your protocol? Did the added HCG bring Preg levels up? Thanks
 
I've used it in cream and oral micronized @ 25mg/daily, never been impressed with it at any time and I am not currently taking it. The Pregnenolone test is rather expensive so most never do that.
 
I measured mine after being off from HCG for a month and it was undetectable. Will run another test in two weeks after being on HCG+TRT for a month to see
 
I know this is an old post but I have a question related to it.

I ordered to the lab to check my pregnenolone levels and when I got the results I saw they checked the "17-OH pregnenolone" levels. Is that correct? I know pregnenolone and 17-OH pregnenolone aren't the same, but I'm not sure if is it valid to check my pregnenolone levels. Should I ask to repeat the blood test?

Kind regards

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
