High TT, low FT, high SHBG

I've not had success like I want with anything yet. My Doc wants to try Enclomiphene only next. I haven't decided yet.

Are you familiar with Sanesco and their neurotransmitter approach to balancing hormones?

High TT, low FT, high SHBG

These are my baseline numbers. When i tried Clomiphene (25mg/daily) my Total T went up to 1400 but my Free T only went up to 10. My SHBG went up to 143. Did you use Clomiphene along with the T cream? Does the T cream make the testes shrink?

High TT, low FT, high SHBG

I am 47 with a baseline Total Testosterone of 869 but only Free Testosterone of 7. My SHBG is sitting high at 82. My Liver function is good, Thyroid function is good. Boron and Stinging Nettle Root has not lowered my SHBG. Any suggestions on how to lower my SHBG and raise my Free Testosterone...

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
