My pregnenolone experience so far
-
Been feeling low libido with poor cognitive function since being exposed to toxic mold. I moved out of the moldy environment and really dialed in my diet and supps. I started feeling better overall and saw some fat loss, but libido, cognition , and mood was still bad, so I brought pregnenolone (HealthNatura) on board, starting with 5mg per day but moved up to 50mg daily and now I feel suicidal.
My temps and pulse rate have been low since being exposed to the mold and I really think I should have taken care of this before trying pregnenolone as I think my current state is shifting the hormones toward estrogen.
Thinking about getting back on cynomel and may revisit pregnenolone in the future, if I feel like I need it.
Will also be starting a detox protocol soon as my blood still shows mycotoxin load.
I welcome any thoughts. -
@z_pav I've taken up to 500mg of Health Natura's pregnenolone per day without much difference in mood.
It's hard to tell what pregnenolone is doing when you're already in a compromised health state.
It's definitely unusual for pregnenolone if it's causing suicidal feelings. -
@z_pav I'm fairly certain pure pregnenolone shouldn't do this and should in fact ameloriate those symptoms. I don't know how pure health naturas product is, but I haven't heard bad things about it frequently. I would stay weary though. If you're very confident about it's purity, I would suggest taking a massive dose (several hundred milligrams to a gram). To my knowledge large amounts don't promote the estrogen pathway, but rather the progesterone related steroids instead, such as allopregnanolone, which should make you the opposite of suicidal. If things really are that bad I don't know if 50mg is enough to make a considerable difference. I wish you the best of luck. I would maybe try progesterone instead if you're really in an emergency. It's more reliable.
