Anyone running pregnenolone + progesterone together? Thinking about stacking

Posted by tyler_m in Protocols & Stacks - 1 points, 0 comments.

So ive been digging into pregnenolone for a bit, partly for the cognitive side and partly because the whole "mother hormone" thing made sense to me as a way to support my stack without just throwing more testosterone at the system. Started low, around 50mg in the morning, and honestly the sleep depth and general calm the next day felt noticeably better, though im fully aware that could just be placebo after reading too much about it.

Now im tempted to add micronized progesterone at night, maybe 100mg oral before bed. The reasoning in my head is pregnenolone upstream feeding the pathway, progesterone downstream to oppose any excess estrogen conversion and help with GABA-mediated sleep. Sounds clean on paper.

But to be fair this is where I start questioning myself. Am I just stacking hormones because theyre available, or is there a real rationale? Has anyone here actually run both together and noticed anything worthwhile, or did it turn into a mess of mood swings and weird sides? Genuinely curious what peoples bloodwork looked like before and after if youve done it.
