What am I missing here? Are you on a TRT protocol and what were your symptoms that took you to the doctor to begin with? You write that you "feel great," but you can't get bloodwork? Can you clarify what your situation is? Many thanks.

I agree with CoastWatcher. Please provide more information.

Are you on TRT?
TRT method
TRT dose
How long you have been on TRT?
Is that a total estrogen test and, if so, did your doctor use a sensitive test? How about estradiol?

Sorry. My Gp wont prescribe TRT treatment and as refused blood tests as he doesn't support my self medicating. Its a long story but I abused my life in late teens into 20`s then spent a decade on anti depressants and ADHD drugs. Ive been depressed with no libido and most symptoms of Low-T.

Yes. 50-60 mg twice weekly intramuscular injections. Ive been self medicating 8 weeks. Im new to all this so please forgive my ignorance but I asked him for a Estradiol reading with my blood test and have received my results this morning. It don't make much sense to me plus im ADHD so struggle with reading and writing

So I cant do much about it then. If the truth of TRT broke out in the UK it would revolutionize the Pharmecutical industry and that's why doc`s are scared. My GP as seen a great transformation in 2 months and he`s freaking out

It's important that you monitor your hemoglobin and hematocrit while administering testosterone. What, exactly, does your doctor provide in the way of oversight? Will he order a cbc (complete blood count) and follow your psa on an ongoing basis?

Low SHBG, my understanding is it's caused by Insulin resistance. ( "metabolic syndrome," or high risk of type 2 diabetes )

Vince, could you please find out some more info on this as its a worry as TRT asnt affected my SHBG in anyway

Low SHBG is a marker, it can occur in metabolic syndrome/diabetes, and testing can determine if a person is dealing with issues such as insulin resistance, diabetes, metabolic syndrome. The majority of men with low SHBG do not have these issues to contend with.

Dealing with low SHBG is just another factor that some men have to deal with when implementing a TRT protocol. Usually it is something that can be dealt with via more frequent, smaller injections of testosterone. There are instances where it becomes a real obstacle to successful TRT management. There are excellent threads here on the Forum that can be accessed via searching. They will provide you with a lot of good reading.
