You're right, most don't test for Pregnenolone, but how many people are truly trying to backfill pathways? Likely only those on TRT and very few of those. Yes, is expensive to test, normally somewhere around $110. How accurate is it, I'm not sure to be honest with you. What I do know is my Pregenolone, Progesterone, and DHEA were virtually non-detectable on several blood tests prior to using HCG and after using HCG. I dropped HCG and started supplementing with Pregnenolone and DHEA and I number have consistently increase measurably.
For me, when I do something, I am pretty much all in. I wanted to backfill the pathways and have that feeling of well being I read so much about. HCG did not do that for me. However, after supplementing with DHEA and Pregnenolone, getting noticeably improved results, I do have that feeling of well being and I am calmer than I have ever been. I wish I had tried supplementing 13 years ago when I started TRT. So, for me, supplementing with Pregnenolone and DHEA has worked very well. For many it doesn't. I believe the test has to be somewhat accurate because after three tests showing these as non-detectable I have 4 tests showing a constant increase in DHEA, Pregnenolone and Progesterone.
We are all different.
