Source for bulk 6-keto-p4

@engineer You seem to think it's worth it, so I won't question your excessive budget.
But keep in mind, I don't think there exists a commericialaly available purity test for 6 keto P4, so you would have to get another company to develop a test for it. Maybe costing another thousand. Otherwise they could send you another product like cholesterol and laugh at you.
In the end of the day, you are just a private client and probably don't care that much about 100g of anything custom- it's probably not worth the effort, unless you want much more.
You seem smart so I would consider looking to synthesise it yourself from progesterone powder.

100mg of regular progesterone will turn you transgender
it doesn't

You know, I have been seriously considering this not only for 6-keto but also all the other compounds that are hard/impossible/risky to get (you probably know which ones). Only problem is my project area is all equipped for electrical engineering and I was already planning on somehow adding an optical area too.
This is what I mean by optical:

How much stuff do you need for this kind of biochem? I DO know cheap and cheerful fumehoods are a thing

So why do some people make a huge fuss about high dose prog?

@engineer femineity =/= neoteny, estrogen is more likely to make someone look like a women.
its more likely they are already hypothyroid to begin with? the more hyperthyroid and the better your thiamine status is, the better your 5ar enzyme works. friends of friends have told me their DHT significantly rose (on bloodwork) from high dose progesterone. the back door pathway is used moreso the more eu/hyperthyroid you are. if you tend to run off adrenaline and estrogen its possible its not converted/used very well. route of administration matters too, you can ask GPT where 5ar1/2/3 enzymes are located on what parts of the skin, but the enzymes and enzyme location on the skin responsible for T->DHT,DHEA->DHT, P4->backdoor->DHT are not uniform.

@engineer I think you would need microbes to convert the progesterone or use enzymes.

Found one with prices
https://www.chemenu.com/products/2243-08-5.html
$757 for 25g
That's 3.6x cheaper than Idealabs
Only question remaining is authenticity
If we knew the spectrum of 6-keto-p4 then I could use a spectrometer at my college to check the purity
-
@engineer Get 5g and try it out. Only 300 dollars.
-
@engineer, don't you think 97% purity is rather dangerous
-
@lobotomize what purity is Idealabs?
-
@engineer level 10
-
@lobotomize level 10??
