[QUOTE="Vince Carter, post: 19002, member: 2657"] I've tested at 12 and 15 this year, never a reason for it or any condition detected in all the bloodwork. Its how I am. Coping with it, this is what I've learned that works for me. This isn't a bad thing at all, when people say that they don't get the benefits of TRT, we have to approach it differently. I had to put myself on M/W/F injections, my body processes it very quickly. I have a trough of 814 and a 24hr peak of 1475...that fast metabolizing had me on a rollercoaster at twice a week injections, I was way up and then way down. Once a week was a terrible experience. With M/W/F, i stay up and have a much smoother ride through the week. I dose anastrozole on injection days but just ~.1875 mg per. [B]The low SHBG also results in just as much free Estrogen through the liver as free T. Yes, my Free T is off the charts high even in my trough. [/B] This I feel is THE reason low SHBG guys have a tough time feeling good: [B]E2 is very tough to manage[/B]. I've had at least 10 E2 tests this year, it's something I had to keep a very close eye on...like my T, I was up and down and up and down. You see I had to get small AI doses more frequently, paying close attention to the 50hr half-life of Anastrozole. Bottomline I've put a lot of work in to getting myself where I no longer feel like I need to chase dosing and injection intervals. I feel as good as I want to feel. I also feel low SHBG guys are on higher doses of TCyp. I read these 100mg/week doses and just couldn't work that low of a dose, my T trough would be subclinically low on those doses. What is working for me is 60mg 3x week. [/QUOTE]
