On a broad­er lev­el, hor­mones are mol­e­cules that are gen­er­at­ed and emit­ted by endocrine glands present in our bod­ies. When the hor­mones are emit­ted into the blood­stream, they pass through var­i­ous body parts gen­er­at­ing respons­es from par­tic­u­lar cells. In par­tic­u­lar, the steroid hor­mones are drawn mol­e­cules that are fat sol­u­ble. Two of the com­mon steroid hor­mones are the sex hor­mones that are exud­ed by male and female sex­u­al organs and adren­al glands that secrete hor­mones such as aldos­terone, andro­gens etc.

How Steroid Hor­mones Function ?

Steroid hor­mones are the rea­son behind the rev­o­lu­tion tak­ing place in a cell. They do so by pass­ing the cell mem­brane of the objec­tive cell. Steroid hor­mones are able to do so because of their fat-sol­u­­bil­i­­ty. This is some­thing that non-steroid hor­mones lack. Typ­i­cal­ly, cell mem­branes com­prise of dual lay­ers of phos­pho­lipid which avert the mol­e­cules that can­not dis­solve fats from dilut­ing with­in the cell. When the steroid hor­mones enter the cell, they bind them­selves with a par­tic­u­lar recep­tor which only occurs on the cell’s cyto­plasm. This recep­tor then trav­els into the nucle­us and attach­es itself to a new pre­cise recep­tor that occurs in the chro­matin. Upon being linked with chro­matin, the steroid hor­mone and recep­tor amal­ga­ma­tion orders for the con­struc­tion of explic­it RNA mol­e­cules known as the mes­sen­ger RNA (or mRNA). This process is known as tran­scrip­tion. These mRNA mol­e­cules are cus­tomized and car­ried all the way to the cyto­plasm. Now, the mRNA mol­e­cules reg­u­late the cre­ation of pro­teins via a pro­ce­dure known as trans­la­tion. Gen­er­al­ly, these pro­teins are uti­lized to cre­ate and build up mus­cles.

The Preg­nenolone Steroid Hormone

Preg­nenolone is found in the human bod­ies nat­u­ral­ly. How­ev­er, it’s also acces­si­ble in the form of a nutri­tion­al sup­ple­ment. Preg­nenolone is one of the many kinds of steroid that is uti­lized for fur­ther gen­er­at­ing oth­er steroid hor­mones like Estro­gen and DHEA. Sup­port­ers often assert that the con­sump­tion of preg­neno­lene can cure or alle­vi­ate a range of health-relat­ed con­cerns. Some of them include : 

• Alzheimer’s Dis­ease,
• Depres­sion,
• Symp­toms of Menopause,
• Pso­ri­a­sis,
• Fatigue,
• Arthri­tis,
• Pre­men­stru­al dis­or­der, etc.

The first round of research revealed that preg­nenolone may assist and defend against age-relat­ed mem­o­ry prob­lems. This is accord­ing to a report that was pub­lished in Brain Research Reviews in 2001, where researchers inves­ti­gat­ed the acces­si­ble stud­ies based on the steroid hor­mones and how they impact the intel­lect and remem­brance of an elder­ly brain. More­over, preg­nenolone reflects promis­ing results when used for cur­ing schiz­o­phre­nia, says a report that was pub­lished in Neu­ro­science 5 years ago (2011).
