Will a 20mg bump decrease SHBG?

[Acer97]

I’m currently injecting 80mg once a week but I’m increasing my dose to 100mg. My current SHBG is 23 but I’m concerned this increase will lower it? What do you guys think?

I’m honestly not sure. Ime, going on HRT seemed to lower my SHBG to mid 30’s to low 40’s, regardless of my dose. Seems like it lowered it quite a bit, and the the decrease in my SHBG plateaued, and increasing my dose didn’t decrease my SHBG any further

Any decrease in SHBG from 20 mg of additional test will be negligible.

Ok good yeah when I started I was at low 30s now I’m low 20s but I’ve never upped my dose before

How often are you injecting? Spreading the shots out will lessen the impact on SHBG (according to a video I watched yesterday)
