Pregnenolone is biochemically a prohormone. It is made directly from cholesterol within the mitochondria of the adrenal glands and, to a lesser degree, the nervous system, with the help of the cholesterol side chain cleavage enzyme, p450scc. Pregnenolone is a precursor to various hormones, such as progesterone, mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, androgens, and estrogens. It can help the body maintain normal hormone levels, which in turn helps numerous body functions.

Miracle for CFS and Hashimoto's
by Maria Sobolewski
This pregnenolone has given me my life back. Thyroid meds for Hashimoto's did NOTHING for the debilitation and crushing weakness and fatigue. Was barely able to move, unable to drive car, gather thoughts or even speak. The rice filler is a true "inactive" unlike the chemically treated cellulose other manufacturers use. The cellulose causes increasingly worse aches and pains throughout the body, which is why I now refuse to buy any meds or supplements with it.

I received this promptly
by Chris
I was happy this arrived on time but I can't say much more as I bought a few different brands of Pregnenolone to try thus it will be quite some time until i get to opening the Life Extension brand but I expect all will be fine with it.

Great product for hormone balance
by Linda -
I bought this product because I am in my late 60s and feel that I'm beginning to experience menopause. I already take DHEA and have been for approximately 12 years. I believe in a holistic, natural approach to wellness. I have found that the combination of Pregnenolone and the DHEA, combined with a high protein diet and exercise, keep my hormones in balance. This is just my personal experience, and I'm not suggesting others follow my recommendation... everyone should consult their healthcare provider and do their own individual research on what would work best for them.
