40mg every 3.5days (80mg/week). T cypionate.

Those values are most likely for Hemoglobin / Hematocrit

Nice find! Looks like the OP's numbers are from the Thyroxine conversion.

You're not missing anything. My Free T has been as low as 6 ng/dl. Do you have any other numbers (Total T, SHBG, Estradiol sensitive)?

Good analysis and reasoning. I double checked everything. One thought on my high SHBG is that I exercise pretty hard every day. I know sometimes exercise increases SHBG but to increase it over 20 points is crazy...

I was initially thinking the same thing and double checked the dosage. Labs were drawn in the morning and then I did my injection right afterwards.

UPDATE: 6 weeks later... Something strange is going on. I lowered my dosage of 50mg twice a week down to 42mg twice a week and Total T, E2 sensitive, and SHBG actually increased. Free T dropped. Labs are attached. Using the Free and Bioavailable T calculator shows Free T at 24.9 ng/dl...

Yes. I had blood labwork done then went home and did an injection.

Vince, I will try 45mg twice a week as you suggest and retest in 6 to 8 weeks. I'll see about maybe testing Free E next time if I can afford it. Hopefully my E2 also drops slightly from the change in dose so nipple soreness goes away so I don't have to use an AI. Thanks for your help!!!

I recently switched to injections from cream. I'm 55 years old and workout 5 to 6 days a week. Bodyfat is 12%. I've been using testosterone cream for about 7 years but recently hasn't been working as well (no libido, take 2 naps a day, tired most of the time). I've always had high SHBG. My...
