Ray Peat suggests that cholesterol, vitamin A, and T3 are fed to the mitochondria to produce pregnenolone:

Is there a test - or tests - that will show if we are producing appropriate amounts of pregnenolone? Labcorp shows these tests in reply to a search on pregnenolone:

500773 Pregnenolone, ACTH Stimulation
500770 17-OH Pregnenolone, ACTH Stimulation
140707 Pregnenolone, Mass Spectrometry (Endocrine Sciences)
140715 17-Hydroxypregnenolone, Mass Spectrometry (Endocrine Sciences)
070085 17-OH Progesterone, Serum, LCMS
500175 Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) Pediatric Profile Six−Comprehensive Screen (Endocrine Sciences)
