    Low SHBG guys. Will increasing injection frequency make any difference?

    I agree too! I’ve also never had any blood sugar issues always in the same range as yours! Only issues I face are with cholesterol and genetically low HDL, despite how active I am. I’ve never had an SHBG level higher than 12 while on TRT. Pre TRT and on Clomid I was low 20’s. So still pretty...

    Low SHBG guys. Will increasing injection frequency make any difference?

    I have supplemented with Berberine for the metabolic syndrome my doctor claims I have, but never with T4/T3. Berberine has some interesting studies going on about it and I can say it helped me a little bit by improving insulin resistance and lowering my A1C which weren’t too bad to begin with...

    Low SHBG guys. Will increasing injection frequency make any difference?

    I’m a super low SHBG guy and I’m only 32. My SHBG has been stuck at 8-9 for some time now. I believe it’s because when I first started TRT the doctor put me on 200mg a week and suppressed it. Have not been able to get it back up since. I felt great in the beginning then the feeling started...

    Testosterone plus Clomid Combination

    ———————————————————————-—— I feel the struggle. I am low SHBG also, as I mentioned. These are my labs with 50mg EOD of testosterone cypionate and 12.5 mg of clomid on the day of my injections. I must say I feel pretty good. Energy could be better, but everything else seems to be online. Wish I...

    Testosterone plus Clomid Combination

    Exactly my point! I definitely feel something too on TRT + Clomid, even though it doesn’t affect anything on my labs. I was positive it wasn’t a placebo now I am reassured.

    Please help. Recent diagnosis , extremely low T. Help.

    I take it with testosterone. I definitely feel like it promotes my sperm production due to my much larger loads (sorry to be graphic lol). No side effects except I get a warm feeling every time I inject it but it subsides after a few hours and definitely a stronger urge to have sex a lot more...

    Please help. Recent diagnosis , extremely low T. Help.

    Hey man. Reading this post you are in the same exact boat as me. I lived most of my 20's like you are now with no answers and everything showing normal. I'm 30 now. With a lot of trial and error over the past few years trying clomid, testosterone alone, and doing nothing at all. Nothing was...

    6 weeks into daily injections. Labs don’t make sense me!

    Sorry. Here are the lab ranges: Testosterone Total LC/MS/MS: 664 (Range: 250-1100 ng/DL) Free Testosterone: 176.6 (Range: 35.0-155.0 pg/mL) Estradiol (Sensitive): 54 (Range: < or = 39 pg/mL). I was expecting a higher total and possibly lower estradiol levels because of the daily injections...

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

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