The Pregnenolone test measures the level of pregnenolone, a steroid hormone produced primarily by the adrenal glands and the brain. Pregnenolone serves as a precursor for many other hormones, including cortisol, DHEA, progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone.
This test is commonly used to evaluate adrenal function and overall hormone balance. It may be helpful when assessing symptoms such as fatigue, stress intolerance, cognitive changes, or hormonal imbalance. Results are often interpreted alongside other adrenal and sex hormone tests for a comprehensive hormonal assessment.
