Pregnenolone Usage and Dosage

[daveinquito]

Hello, I am a 60 yo man on TRT weighing 295 and 6'4" tall. Iwant to hear from members if this supplement is worthwhile and what dosage you recommend for my situation..

Hello, I received no replied so I think I must be in the wrong area. Could someone let me know where to post this question?

You're in the right place. IMO, it's a very good idea to dose pregnenolone. There is a sticky on this forum with good information on it. Personally, I always let my blood work dictate my dose of any supplement. Accordingly, I dose 50mg, 2x/day.

Thanks, I will read the sticky and do what needs to be done. Should I inform my urologist that I intend to take this supplement? I don't want him to think I am interfering with his treatment.

If you want to monitor your levels through blood work, it might be a good idea.

Thanks all. Just one more ? How long does it stay in your system?

Agree with 2Sox. Preg and DHEA both are important. If you supplement with them always use a micronized product for best absorption as it makes a huge difference. And as Sox said, BW is your guide. Know that Preg is in our cholesterol pathways. Cholesterol is step one in the production of testosterone followed by Preg. Preg is also a transformer type neuro-hormone. Meaning it senses what your body needs downstream and converts to it. Also when on TRT it's prudent to back-fill pathways from the application of exogenous testosterone.
