[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 277960, member: 15832"] Total T doesn't increase hemoglobin, the Free T is the driving factor for all benefits or side effects on TRT. Total T will increase, but some doctors even ignore the Total T and focus solely on the Free T, since it's the [U]active[/U] portion of testosterone. It sounds like your PCP doesn't know what he's talking about. I'll bet this PCP will freak out if your hemoglobin is a little bit elevated, which isn't really as cause for concern. The estrogen doesn't need to be in range, it's far more common for it to be well above the ranges on TRT. Also the estrogen normal ranges were derived from men with a Total T <500, most men are running well above this level and therefore estrogen typically runs higher.
