Bioidentical Pregnenolone

Hormonal balance is vital to a healthy mind and body but can be disrupted in many ways. Hormone fluctuations occur naturally, such as in puberty, menopause and perimenopause. As you age, your primary hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, testosterone and even DHEA can become imbalanced. Hormonal imbalance is a serious concern than what most people think, symptoms associated with this condition include: unexplained weight gain or weight loss, unexplained or excessive sweating, difficulty sleeping, brittle or weak bones, irritability and anxiety, unexplained and long-term fatigue, reduced sex drive, infertility, among others which can significantly affect your quality of life.

What is Bioidentical Pregnenolone?

Pregnenolone is one of your primary hormones that has been named “the mother hormone,” as it is the very first (and arguably the most versatile) of your hormones that has the ability to begin a cascade of events at the cellular level in your body.

Pregnenolone is created through a complex biosynthesis with cholesterol, and it is this creation that begins the first of many steps in the synthesis of some of the body’s primary hormones, including dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), testosterone, progesterone, estrogen, and cortisol. So, when pregnenolone levels become imbalanced, it can actually have a cascading effect on many of your other hormones in the process. This is why pregnenolone replacement therapy is so important to maintain an optimal level of health and vitality.
