[QUOTE="Sergel, post: 279912, member: 39139"] Hmm... no one talks about SHBG and free T much, but I believe that is one of the major issues with long term TRT users... I started TRT with my total T in the 500s but my free T was really really low... I felt miserable. I have no idea why my SHBG was so high... I started TRT and oh boy, did I ever get a honeymoon... I felt like a stallion, started at 120mg/w divided in two doses... It was heaven.... until... it wasn't anymore... so I started to chase that dragon again... I wanted to feel like in my first 6 to 8 months... so I upped the dose, and upped the dose to no avail... lol I ran superphysiological for so long... never feeling good until anxiety set in... This group was a god send to me... eventually I figured out I needed to lower my dose, seriously lowering... At first I got my total T in range, 700s ~ 800s .... but my free T was still superphysiological... Hmm, Did my SHBG and it turned out low! Phenomena that is quite common amongst long time T users... especially if they ran hot for a long time... funny how the body works... So I stopped worrying about my total T and focussed on my Free T ... to get that in a physiological range... which brings me to Total T in the 500s ... which I always thought was low but man, libido and erections were waiting for me in that range all this time... lol I am now injecting every other day, and cruising between 60 and 70 mg per week depending if I am cycling HCG or not... and I can finally start to say I feel dialed in... (I am 66 and in decent shape)... Also, I don't care much about estrogen, I see this as a bonus of trt as estrogen is protective of so many thing and if your T is in a good place, E will follow quite naturally... to lower E you are better with more frequent injections than with an AI... AIs are poisons... Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
