Guys that have low SHBG, what protocols have you used and what is your SHBG?
I’m a low SHBG guy myself (11) prior to starting TRT and have tried ED @20mg and it still put my free over the top and E2 out of control. Just thought we could all share in one post what all we’ve tried and the results.
I will get my Free E results on Tuesday at my appointment, for some reason they do not come through on the app. Previously Free E has been very high.
I’ve not had any issue with bloating or any other symptoms of high E since changing to ED injections. Changing to ED has helped dramatically vs...
Previously I had been on 100mg E5D and wasn’t feeling the greatest. Had lab work done and it showed the following:
TT 967 ng/dL
FT 277.7 pg/mL
SHBG 9 nmol/L
E2 51 pg/mL
Talked with the doctor and decided that since my SHBG was so low we would try 6 weeks of ED injections of 20mg.
I just got...
CW my E2 was 51 almost 2 weeks ago when I had my labs done and I haven’t taken any AI since. So no real reason why it would’ve dropped anymore. This is why the sudden onset of soreness and joints popping is interesting.
VC / CW,
Since swapping to ED injections Tuesday my joints seem to be sore and popping more than normal, almost like low E2. Do you recall this during your transition to ED injections? I haven’t taken an AI in over 5 weeks.
VC, correct me if I’m wrong, but I think I remember you being low SHBG as well. Did ED injections help you? Should ED help control FT better?
We started at 20mg ED since I was already at 100mg E5D. I have labs in 6 weeks to check my levels again.
VC,
Below is my bw from last week. This was on 100mg e5d, labs were done on the 5th day.
TT 967 Ng/dL
FT 277 pg/ml
SHBG 9 nmol/L
Estradiol 51 pg/mL
BW was 2 weeks after taking 0.5 mg of arimadex.
My FT is really high, I think due to the low SHBG. Surprisingly my TT was still pretty high, I...
Made the swap today from e5d @ 100mg to ED @ 20mg due to SHBG of 9. Other guys when you made this change did you feel a lull while your body adjusted or start feeling better shortly after the change to ED?
My blood was drawn on the 5th day, that morning. I do my shots at night.
Sorry for the ignorant question, but why is ther no way to carry those numbers on a SHBG of 9? I’ve been on a roller coaster since starting trt. Sometimes I feel great and other times not so much. Just depends on when I...
Very low SHBG and high FT! I had new bw dome last week and have an appointment with my doctor on Tuesday. I’ve been on 100mg e5d of testosterone cypionate. I’ve made progress physically but still not feeling the best.
TT 967 Ng/dL
FT 277 pg/ml
SHBG 9 nmol/L
Estradiol 51 pg/mL
BW was 2 weeks...
