What is Pregnenolone?
Pregnenolone is a hormone that is naturally produced in the body. It serves as a precursor to many other hormones, including progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone. Pregnenolone levels can be measured through a blood or saliva test.
Why is the PREGNENOLONE Test ordered?
A healthcare provider may order a PREGNENOLONE Test to evaluate adrenal function, as pregnenolone is primarily produced in the adrenal glands. It can also be used to assess hormone imbalances, such as low levels of progesterone or estrogen.
How is the PREGNENOLONE Test performed?
To perform the PREGNENOLONE Test, a blood or saliva sample is collected and sent to our laboratory for analysis. Our state-of-the-art LC-MS/MS method ensures accurate results.
Interpreting the Results
The results of the PREGNENOLONE Test can help determine if there are any deficiencies or excesses in pregnenolone levels. This information is valuable for diagnosing and managing certain conditions related to adrenal function and hormone levels.
Important Note about Pregnenolone Supplementation
Pregnenolone supplementation is available as an over-the-counter dietary supplement. However, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare provider before using it. Self-administered supplementation without proper monitoring can lead to imbalances in other hormones and potential side effects.
