I do exercise by the way more than you ever imagine .
There is a genetic component to this that these people don't understand . You always get responses like : Insulin resistance , weight loss , fiber , Caffeine , Metformin , Berberine , fasting ... Blah Blah blah . I have everything in order...
I m just checking with the community to see if there is a new discovery with Low SHBG individuals ?
Any new treatment ?
Any new strategies to raise it ?
It is a bad curse .
Does it upregulate or downregulate the aromatase enzyme ? I have read two studies that give conflicting answers . One study says it downregulates it , the other study says that it upregulates it and caused Gynecomastia in some men when they were hyper .
I have searched for the answer endlessly and only got conflicting reports . Does Thyroid hormone ( T4,t3) reduce Estrogen or raise it ? What is their effects on the aromatase enzyme ?
Thank you . All seems very confusing and I think the TRT/testosterone community could benefit from the correct...
I m in the process of restarting after TRT , but Clomid is a non-starter for me and Nolvadex also gave me libido issues . I want to choose Toremifene Citrate as the SERM post HCG but my doctor says it may not be available in pharmacies . Does anybody know if that is true ? Is there a pharmacy...
This study confirms that D-chiro-inositol raises Testosterone significantly and lowers E2 and Estrone :

Why is this not talked about anywhere ? Is there something wrong with the study ? Am I missing something ?
I tried 100 , 80 and 60 mgs per week . On all of them I crashed after 2 weeks was worse than Pre TRT . Shbg is 25 without TRT . It s crashes to low teens with ANY dose of TRT .
I m a lowish SHBG individual . Nothing pretty much works for me . I feel bad on TRT after a couple of weeks and SHBG tanks further to low teens . Thyroid was not my problem and not the cause of my Low SHBG . However IGF 1 is always high , Off or On TRT . Most likely IGF1 is the root cause if my...
I have high reverse t3 and free t3 in mid-low range. Shbg is 27 without TRT and with TRT it will tank to 16 in two weeks. NO MATTER THE DOSE , FREQUENCY, AI OR NO AI. I ll always fell like hell after feeling great for two weeks . Could T3 only therapy make TRT work for me ??
Will the arimidex make SHBG plummet further . Cause aromasin directly slashes SHBG ?
A lot of symptoms I have are e2 related . No appetite . Watery fat looking body . Digestion issue . Constipation . All happened since starting trt .
Here is my labs on 20 MGs EOD . TT : 884. FT : 32 . SHBG : 13 . E2 : 27.9 . My baseline was 400 and was doing better ( although suboptimal ) than any dose . I ve also did 160 mgs per week which was the worst week of my life. Trust me Ihave been all over .
The total testosterone comes back 800 -1000 each time with free well above the range . I used to have more muscle with my own 400 Total. The biggest problem I think is SHBG which makes me a complete non responder after the second week. Leaves me irritable , anxious and with whole host of...
I did 9 mg ED , 20MG EOD and 30 mgs E3D . All drove my ShBG to low teens ( and felt horrible after a week on every protocol) . Actually lost muscle and every other symptom was worse . This Low SHBG is my Everest. If I could change this piece of shit liver I would in a heartbeat .
The problem is that my SHBG drops like crazy on injection. Last time from 28 to 12 . No matter what my Dose or E2 is and after a week or two I become way worse than before TRT . I was wondering if the scrotal cream has a different effect on SHBG.
For the guys who have labs on both . Does your SHBG tend to differ with injectable and Scrotal cream ?
My SHBG goes from mid 20s to low teens on ANY dose or frequency of Test cyp .
I was wondering if Cream is different ?
Please let me know I am desperate.
