Lots going on with your post and you're working with a Doc who is not trained properly.
Let's start with Pregnenolone cream; it does not cause hair lose no matter how you take it. He's confusing it with transdermal Testosterone gels/creams that can interact with SQ Aromatase enzymes and for some men this converts to higher levels of DHT which causes hair loss.
I've never heard of this happening with Pregnenlone as it too far upstream from that to happen.
I used to be a believer in transdermal Preg and DHEA creams but for me it didn't work well and was expensive (probably didn't absorb well and there are papers out there that indicate that both probably don't absorb well enough to get serum levels to optimal levels so I am back on pills that are micronized...at least for me).
HCG is not going to raise your preg or DHEA levels enough as both need to be at the high end of the reference range...especially DHEA.
OP:
My protocol as pertains to this discussion
150mg Test Eth IM every 10 days
Need to go to at least every 7 days and better twice a week...learn about Testosterone half life.
250iu hcg Sub Q 9th and 10th day
Too far out but it's tied to your every 10 day Test injection. He's spreading you too far out by a few days but it adds up.
1/2mg Arimidex every 4th day
This seems really excessive. An AI like Arimidex is a very powerful antagonist and .5mg every 4 days on just 150mg of Test every ten days is probably tanking your E2 levels...can you post most recent BW?
50mg DHEA EOD
Add in 50mg of Preg as well and make sure the DHEA is micronized.
