HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Pregnenolone Powder 20 mg by BulkSupplements.com

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 Jul 11, 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 at 20 mg per serving. Pregnenolone is a hormone naturally made by your body—it's a precursor, meaning your body converts it into other steroid hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone.

There are no inactive ingredients listed.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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 assessable

This is a single-ingredient Pregnenolone product and its label doesn't state a use — see Pregnenolone's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence we hold doesn't establish that pregnenolone works reliably for any condition. We have effectiveness ratings for alcohol use disorder, Alzheimer disease, autism spectrum disorder, back pain, and bipolar disorder, and for all of them the evidence is insufficient to know whether it helps.

If you're considering pregnenolone for a specific health reason, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about what the research actually shows 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 when taken by mouth, but it is a hormone with limited human safety data—so use it only under the guidance of a healthcare professional. The most common side effects reported in trials include acne, agitation, diarrhea, drowsiness, excitement, hair loss, skin abscess, sweating, and tremor.

Less common effects are skin rash with burning (possibly from sun sensitivity), depressive feelings, and changes in appetite. The safety data advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to unknown risks.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Pregnenolone.

  • 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.

Check with your pharmacist before combining this with estrogens, benzodiazepines, progestins, testosterone, or progesterone. All of these are documented Moderate-severity interactions with pregnenolone.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Pregnenolone is a hormone supplement with a lot of unproven uses and limited safety research. If you take estrogens, benzodiazepines, or any hormone therapy, you need to check your exact medications with our tool before starting.

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.

Yes. Based on its ingredients, Pregnenolone Powder 20 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 Powder 20 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.
Can I take pregnenolone if I'm pregnant?
No. The safety data advises against pregnenolone during pregnancy because the risks to your baby aren't known. Talk with your doctor before starting any hormone supplement if you're pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
Is it safe to use while breastfeeding?
No. There isn't enough safety information, so avoid pregnenolone while breastfeeding. Ask your pharmacist or doctor about safer options if you need support postpartum.
What does pregnenolone actually do in my body?
Pregnenolone is a hormone your body naturally produces and uses as a building block to make other hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone. We don't have reliable evidence it helps with any specific health condition.
What are the most common side effects?
Acne, agitation, diarrhea, drowsiness, excitement, hair loss, skin abscess, sweating, and tremor have been reported. Most people tolerate it well, but hormone supplements can affect you unpredictably—that's why you should use this only under professional guidance.
Will pregnenolone work for memory loss or Alzheimer disease?
The evidence we hold is insufficient to say whether it helps. If you're interested in it for cognitive issues, talk with your doctor about what's actually proven.
