How fluid is SHBG?

[S1W]

How long does it take SHBG to change if, for example, it has been lowered through the use of say high dose testosterone or the use of oxandrolone?

If one were to lower the dose of testosterone or cease using oxandrolone, when could one expect to see a rise in SHBG in lab work?

We’ll assume that the respective 5 half lives of the drugs will have been realized in this example.

My comments specific to 17-aa AAS (see details in links)....short answer 7 days after stopping medication +/- couple of day human variability for SHBG to recover.

Realistic TRT Recomp Progress

My baseline: HDL-c about 60 / SHBG 55 On 50 mg/day (dosed twice daily) for 2 weeks after 25 mg/d for 2 weeks (dosed once daily): HDL-c was 20 / SHBG 9 So I looked up my 15 mg/EOD experiment for you (4 weeks): HDL-c was 30 / SHBG 13 Dose response for oxandrolone on SHBG and lipids is not...

Realistic TRT Recomp Progress

My pleasure guys. Good luck with the experiments. A little more literature info: 10 mg/day of oxandrolone decreases HDL-c by 33% within 7 days. Good correlation is observed between SHBG and HL activity. Hence, I’m assuming SHBG and lipids will both roughly track HL activity upon...

This thread talks in particular about the impact of AAS on SHBG in terms of Anavar and Winstrol:

Anavar (Oxandrolone) does lower SHBG!
