We cover the steroidogenesis pathway so you can see where pregnenolone sits as the mother hormone. I explain how TRT suppresses LH and FSH and why that can lower testicular production of upstream steroids even if adrenal output is unchanged. I walk through pregnenolone’s role as a neurosteroid, how it converts to allopregnanolone, and why that often improves sleep quality, stress tolerance, and mood via GABA modulation. I also outline signs of low pregnenolone, summarize what the clinical literature suggests about cognition and anxiety, and give simple dosing guardrails I use personally and with clients. As always none of this is medical advice. Use it to have a smarter conversation with your clinician.
