[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 192185, member: 38109"] The claim seems misguided. The referenced studies are from 70-80 years ago and are on rats. The primary study says that like pregnenolone, testosterone propionate also "increased testis weight and spermatozoa". So if you are already taking testosterone then there's no added benefit to pregnenolone. And this is in comparison to rats that get no treatment after removal of the pituitary. There is still atrophy, because "the testes weigh 0.6 to 0.7 times as much as in the intact animals." In addition, "The effect does not extend to the interstitial tissue, however; this is atrophic, and the seminal vesicles are reduced to 0.2 times normal weight." [/QUOTE]
