Hello :)
I'm concerned about pregnenolone supplementation triggering negative feedback for pregnenolone and/or other corticoid/steroids production.
My psychiatrist said there is a risk of shutting down or dysregulating HPA axis because of exogenous pregnenolone. I am also afraid it would push my body to produce too much estrogen or less testosterone (even though I'm careful about what is estrogenic and what is androgenic and how to be androgen-dominant)
What are the evidences that it is safe ? I'm 28 and I would prefer to not touch my hormonal balance (even though pregnenolone helps me feel better for the moment). It's not as if I was 60 and obviously needed supplementation. However, since I have lived a stressful and traumatic life, there are chances my HPA axis and hormonal balance is already well disregulated.
If there is any research paper on that, I'll be glad to read it.
Thanks for your answers and have a nice day
