do you think perhaps Pregnenolone caused you some water retention?I have bad news to report about my experience with pregnenolone (100 mg per night up to 300 mg per night).
During the past few months while using it I had to up my dose of blood pressure meds since my BP was increasing dramatically (no changes in weight, stress, hormones, etc).
I decided to stop the pregnenolone and 2 days later my BP was back to baseline. That has remained so for two weeks even as I scaled back my HTN treatment.
Pregnenolone can potentially have an effect on aldosterone and cortisol. I am not sure if this explains my increased BP.

I will report in a few weeks to make sure this is not just a coincidence.
