[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 207429, member: 38109"] In my experience it's uncommon for testosterone to be the primary issue when calculated free testosterone is over 10 ng/dL. I would avoid conventional TRT if at all possible. Clomid is problematic for guys starting with high SHBG because it tends to raise it further, sometimes limiting gains in free testosterone. If you could get enclomiphene instead then it would be a better option. However, I think the best option is a trial with Natesto or an equivalent generic product. The testosterone nasal gels can give you a boost without disrupting other hormones, which is what happens with regular TRT. If you saw substantial improvements with Natesto then it would provide evidence that you need more testosterone. Otherwise it could be an indication to look at other things, such as thyroid hormones, neurotransmitters, etc. Have you had most of these tests?: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.peaktestosterone.com/Testosterone_Tests/[/URL] I would add progesterone to the list to test in advance. I believe low levels of this hormone may contribute to irritability. High serotonin combined with low testosterone is another possible cause. [/QUOTE]
