[QUOTE="Dudley, post: 206024, member: 17180"] Thanks for sharing this. Not sure I am fully understanding the implications, so I appreciate your thoughts: is the gist that high SHBG levels are associated with not only lower T but also with potential cardiac issues? This is very much on my mind because from testing this year I have discovered that I have very high SHBG (top of range or higher), in-range total T, and very low free and bio-available T (bottom or range or below). E.g. most recent labs (just last week, ordering the most accurate T measurement options from Discounted Labs and Quest) show SHBG of 77 (reference range 22-77); Total T 642 (reference range 250-1100), Free T 41.9 (reference range 46-224) and Bioavailable T 78.8 (reference range 110-575). I have never been on TRT or taken exogenous T, and my "normal" total T has so far dissuaded me from starting. But over the past six or nine months I have started having what seem to me significant signs (symptoms?) that I think of as being reflective of low T (much much much slower recovery time from workouts, reduced libido and ejaculate). Thanks for helping me get the most out of the posted article and also any advice or additional information I should be considering. [/QUOTE]
