[QUOTE="MarkM, post: 211145"] I'm not a doctor but I think you would have to supplement with very high levels of pregnenolone put yourself in a situation of that creating a gyno problem. However, if you are predisposed to gyno due to your current hormone levels and body composition then I would think supplementing with pregnenolone might push you over the edge so to speak. Pregnenolone is an upstream hormone of estrogen/estadiol but also upstream to testosterone and DHT. Pregnenolone has been referred to as the Grandmother of all hormones and is the 2nd hormone in the cascade just below cholesterol. In theory, supplementing pregnenolone should increase all downstream hormones. We really don't have enough info about you to know whether or not you need to worry about gyno. I think it is a smaller amount of men that need to worry about gyno but that percentage seems to be increasing with lifestyle changes, the food some eat, and chemicals we are exposed to today. For me, I have normal E2 levels so I am not concerned about gyno and I have high DHT levels which help control E2. I also had low to nonexistent pregnenolone levels prior to supplementing with it. Have you tested you pregnenolone? I wouldn't take any hormone related supplement without knowing where my levels were. Hopefully some much more educated on the subject will comment and give you more solid advice. [/QUOTE]
