But wouldn't other compounds cause it too since testosterone and progesterone are based on the same enzyme. You take testosterone, anavar, anadrol ,superdrol etc. and LH gets turned off and this shuts down the entire axis so testosterone gets turned off and so would progesterone too - thus causing low potassium, right?
I guess.
Hypokalemia will stop the LH. Hypokalemia decreases testosterone production in male mice by altering luteinizing hormone secretion. - PubMed - NCBI

I know that when you are low on potassium, progesterone goes up
Chronic potassium depletion increases adrenal progesterone production that is necessary for efficient renal retention of potassium. - PubMed - NCBI
