    High SHBG

    Insulin is another factor. I am type 1 diabetic and learned that insulin helps regulate other hormones and SHBG. Call Defy medical. Just pay the money. I went to every endocrinologist under the sun for over 4 years and am finally having sex and morning wood again. I would pay the cost ten times...

    High SHBG

    Danazol lowers SHBG, I was in the same boat and was told to increase T injection only to have E raise, SHBG raise and free T to stay at same level. Smaller sub Q injections twice a week and Danazol have helped me and I am taking only .125 mg or AI now.

    Proviron Availability

    Can anyone recommend a doc who will prescribe Proviron? Mine know nothing about it and I would like to avoid black market if possible.

    Should We Be Managing Estradiol and Hematocrit in Men on Testosterone Replacement?

    Is Ferritin something you have to be tested seperate for? I've had those symptoms but none of my labs in the last 3 years reference ferritin or iron.

    Should We Be Managing Estradiol and Hematocrit in Men on Testosterone Replacement?

    It makes sense to me to break up the dose. I worked with a HRT researcher at the University of Washington who theorized that SHBG would react more aggressively to sudden high doses of injectables or creams. He had me raise my levels very slowly (over the course of 2 months) and it was the first...

    Should We Be Managing Estradiol and Hematocrit in Men on Testosterone Replacement?

    Who do you work with? I've asked about diabetic gauge needles in the past but every dr I've used said it's not available. I hated the shot in the leg. But I'm type 1 diabetic and those shots are really a breeze.

    SHBG: who has successfully lowered their levels?

    This has been my experience too. More T doesn't mean lower SHBG for everyone. I had a doc say that SHBG may be reactive to a sudden increase in outside T so try raising levels slowly. This helped a little in that my free T got ove 1% for the first time, but it didn't maintain... very...

    We did try weekly injections. Unfortunately the problem was only worse. Estrogens in the 60s and SHBG in the 80-90 range. My total T got to 1500 but my free T never rose above where it is now. I am tall and skinny but chubby, 20% body fat. I'm working with a personal trainer to try and add...

    Well, can't paste my lab here for some reason... I use 600mg compounded cream on my back and shoulder in the morning. 10,000 iu of vitamin D and insulin for type 1 diabetes. I will try to figure it out but here are the highlights of my last lab: Total: 501 SHBG: 78.6 (ref 16.5-55.9) Estradiol...

    Should We Be Managing Estradiol and Hematocrit in Men on Testosterone Replacement?

    Man am I confused! My current Dr has me on 600mg (three clicks of 200mg cream) compounded cream applied to my shoulder daily. Total T around 500, free at 5, SHBG in the 90s. He says even a 10 point reduction in SHBG will make me feel much better. The worst part is for a while I was taking 800mg...

    Hi all, I just stumbled across this site and found a ton of great info. Quick back story on me: I am 39, at 27 became type 1 diabetic. Always been in relatively good shape and probably partied more than I should have in my 20's (alcohol, not drugs). Around 34 or so my T started slipping south of...
