Anyone used these?
When I told my doctor that I’m suffering from chronic fatigue and brainfog, he suggested pregnenolone supplements. He says they are definitely effective for energy and mental clarity.
So far I’ve held off taking them, because I’m not sure if they’ll help:
I’ve done some research: pregnenolone is a precussor to progesterone, which in turn makes testosterone and estrogen.
So seems as though these supps cd raise T (great), but also raise E.
Also, it seems pregnenolone is a GABA antagonist. Given my racing mind and insomnia, I think my GABA needs help, not hindrance.
On the other hand, there does seem good evidence on energy and brainfog. And perhaps if I supress E by continuing to take DIM, then pregnenolone might help raise T.
Basically, I looking for any advice. I’ve read BigSoftie talking about a few adrenal support mixes he has taken containing pregnenolone. Any insight BigSoftie? Has anyone else had any experience/got any knowledge when it comes to this supplement?
Thanks very much.
