Pregnanediol (Male)

check icon Optimal Result: 47 - 140 ug/g Cr.

Pregnanediol, a key marker in male health, is prominently featured in the ZRT Laboratory Urinary Neurotransmitters panel. Pregnanediol is a metabolite of progesterone, a hormone often associated with female reproductive health but equally important in males. In men, progesterone, and consequently pregnanediol, play roles in regulating the central nervous system, influencing mood, and contributing to the synthesis of other crucial steroids like testosterone.

Abnormal levels of pregnanediol in men can indicate various health concerns, including adrenal issues, hormonal imbalances, and even potential impacts on prostate health.

What does it mean if your Pregnanediol (Male) result is too low?

Low levels of pregnanediol in men, as indicated in a test like the ZRT Laboratory Urinary Neurotransmitters panel, can suggest a deficiency in progesterone or its metabolism. Progesterone, though typically associated with female health, plays a significant role in men's health too. Low progesterone levels in men can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and decreased libido.

The treatment for low pregnanediol levels generally focuses on addressing the underlying cause of the progesterone deficiency. Potential treatment strategies may include:

→ Lifestyle Changes: Implementing a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress reduction techniques can improve overall hormonal balance.

→ Nutritional Support: Ensuring adequate intake of nutrients that support hormone production, such as zinc, magnesium, vitamin B6, and omega-3 fatty acids, can be beneficial.

→ Hormone Therapy: In some cases, healthcare professionals might consider hormone replacement therapy, using bioidentical progesterone under strict medical supervision.

→ Managing Underlying Conditions: Addressing any underlying health issues, such as thyroid disorders or adrenal insufficiency, is crucial as these can impact progesterone levels.

→ Regular Monitoring: Regular follow-ups and hormone level monitoring are important to adjust treatments as needed.

It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and tailored treatment plan, as hormonal imbalances can be complex and vary from person to person.

Disclaimer: Please note that a single test result, such as those obtained from the ZRT Laboratory Urinary Neurotransmitters panel, should not be considered conclusive or indicative of a specific health condition on its own. Hormone levels and other biomarkers can be influenced by a variety of factors, including but not limited to age, lifestyle, medical history, and current health status. Therefore, it is important to interpret these results in the context of a comprehensive medical evaluation. Any concerns or questions regarding test results should be discussed with a qualified healthcare professional who can provide personalized advice and diagnosis based on a thorough assessment of your overall health, medical history, and other relevant factors. Self-diagnosis or treatment based on a single test result is not recommended. Accurate diagnosis and effective treatment require a holistic approach and often multiple tests and evaluations.

What Healthmatters Members Are Saying

5 stars rating

I have been using Healthmatters.io since 2021. I travel all over the world and use different doctors and health facilities. This site has allowed me to consolidate all my various test results over 14 years in one place. And every doctor that I show this to has been impressed. Because with  any health professional I talk to, I can pull up historical results in seconds. It is invaluable. Even going back to the same doctor, they usually do not have the historical results from their facility in a graph format. That has been very helpful.
