Just had another set of labs done interesting results from March 22 labs compared with current May 22 labs.
March 22 labs I was using 30mg Pregnenelone, 10mg DHEA, between 20-50mg Progesterone cream, 12mg Test Cyp ED and .0025 topical finasteride.

*Prior to this test my DHT was always in the 800 - 900 range.
*I was using topical finasteride for about 2 months and then I added in 20-50mg progesterone cream and within 2 weeks I started to get itchy/sore/sensitive nipples.
May 22 Labs, I was using 50 - 75mg Pregnenelone, 20mg DHEA, 12mg Test Cyp ED and .001 Topical finasteride (no progesterone cream).

*My Estrogen has raised obviously due to DHEA and Preg.
I am still awaiting results of Preg and DHEA, but interesting that Progesterone raised higher with 50-75mg Pregnenelone than it did with moderate dose of 30mg Preg and high dose of Progesterone cream, however, I had stopped using Progesterone cream about 1.5 to 2 weeks prior to the March test because of the sensitive nipples so that may have given time for Progest levels to drop.
I am also thinking that Progesterone Cream had a part in lowering my DHT levels with the topical fin from March test, because just 2 weeks after adding Progesterone cream at 20-50mg I got very sensitive nipples.
I am doing my Test, Free Test, SHBG, FT3, FT 4 at end of the month...
