HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Pregnenolone 50 mg by Greens First Female

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Sep 3, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: pregnenolone 50 mg per capsule. Pregnenolone is a steroid hormone precursor, meaning your body can convert it into other hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.

The remaining ingredients—microcrystalline cellulose, hypromellose, and magnesium stearate—are inactive fillers and binders that help form and deliver the capsule.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Pregnenolone's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: promote hormonal memory and cognitive balance.
  • We looked for evidence on: Memory, Stress, Fatigue, Menopausal symptoms, cognitive function, hormone balance.
  • The closest evidence on file: Pregnenolone is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Fatigue (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Pregnenolone is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Memory, Menopausal symptoms, Stress.

The evidence for pregnenolone isn't established in our data. The facts we hold show insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for alcohol use disorder, Alzheimer disease, autism spectrum disorder, back pain, and bipolar disorder.

If you're considering this product for a specific condition, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what the research actually supports for your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Pregnenolone

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Pregnenolone is generally well tolerated orally, but it's a hormone with limited human safety data—use only under guidance from a healthcare professional. The most commonly reported side effects in trials are acne, agitation, diarrhea, drowsiness, excitement, hair loss, skin abscess, sweating, and tremor.

A few people have reported depressive mood, increased appetite, or skin rash with a burning sensation, though it's unclear whether pregnenolone directly caused all of these. During pregnancy, hormone supplements should be avoided due to unknown risks.

There isn't enough safety information to use this product while breastfeeding—talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you in either situation.

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Pregnenolone.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 82 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take estrogens (including birth control), progestins, progesterone, testosterone, or benzodiazepines (sedatives like diazepam). All carry Moderate-severity interaction concerns.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Pregnenolone may appeal to people interested in hormone support, but because it's a hormone itself with limited safety data and multiple interactions with birth control, hormone replacement therapy, and sedatives, it's not a casual supplement. If you take any of those medications or have questions about whether this is appropriate for you, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

They can weigh the potential benefits against the risks in your specific situation.

Pregnenolone5 drug types · 82 drugs

Benzodiazepines

Concomitant use of pregnenolone may reduce the effects of benzodiazepines.
Very preliminary clinical research shows that chronic use of pregnenolone reduces sedative effects of diazepam when compared with chronic use of placebo. This effect may be related to the activity of pregnenolone at GABAA receptors.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Estrogens

Theoretically, taking pregnenolone might enhance the effects of estrogens.
Pregnenolone is a precursor for several steroid hormones, including estrogens.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Progesterone

Theoretically, taking pregnenolone might enhance the effects of progesterone.
In humans, some research shows that oral administration of pregnenolone can increase levels of progesterone. However, other research shows no effect on progesterone levels. It is possible the impact of pregnenolone on progesterone levels may be dose dependent.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Progestin

Theoretically, taking pregnenolone might enhance the effects of progestin.
Pregnenolone is a precursor for several steroid hormones, including progestin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Testosterone

Theoretically, taking pregnenolone might enhance the effects of testosterone.
Pregnenolone is a precursor for several steroid hormones, including testosterone. However, preliminary clinical research shows that taking pregnenolone 30-500 mg orally daily for up to 8 weeks does not affect testosterone levels.

Pregnenolone 50 mg by Greens First Female: Common Questions

Does Pregnenolone 50 mg by Greens First Female interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Pregnenolone 50 mg has a known interaction with 82 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Pregnenolone 50 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is pregnenolone safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Hormone supplements should be avoided during pregnancy due to unknown risks, and there isn't enough safety information to use it while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your situation before taking this product.
What are the most common side effects?
The most commonly reported side effects from oral pregnenolone are acne, agitation, diarrhea, drowsiness, excitement, hair loss, skin abscess, sweating, and tremor. Skin rash with burning sensations on the hands has also been reported, possibly related to sun sensitivity.
Will this work for Alzheimer disease or bipolar disorder?
The evidence isn't established. Our data shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate pregnenolone for Alzheimer disease, bipolar disorder, autism, back pain, or alcohol use disorder. Talk with your doctor about what's actually proven for what you're looking to treat.
What does pregnenolone do in the body?
Pregnenolone is a steroid hormone precursor—your body can convert it into other hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. Because of that, it can potentially strengthen the effects of hormone medications you may already be taking.
Will this reduce how well my anti-anxiety medication works?
Yes, there's a Moderate-severity concern. Preliminary research shows chronic pregnenolone use may reduce the sedative effects of benzodiazepines (anti-anxiety and sleep medications like diazepam). Check with your doctor or pharmacist before combining them.
