[QUOTE="Cips1975, post: 176224, member: 17586"] Thanks for the reply. I’ve never had my SHBG checked in the 2 1/2 years since on TRT. At this point I am not concerned about that metric as my total test, free test and other basic health markers have been solid during this time period even with the dose changes periodically. I feel and look great, no sides other than some back acne since day 1. I will report back after sometime on this schedule. Again, just experimenting. Knowing my body and paying attention the last 2 years plus during this journey, I am not too concerned. Just a little background, maybe I am an exception, but when I was in the low 230’s test before starting TRT at the age of 42, I actually felt fine other than the lab report number being low end. The reason I got tested was purely curiosity and interest around TRT when I hit my 40’s. Plus I will be 100 % honest there was that vanity component as well. So I went on purely do to my number being low vs treating a symptom. Fast forward 2 1/2 years later, was it a game changer for me? No. The only two things I can concretely say Is I’ve noticed is enhanced recovery and I look better meaning lower body fat and just slight Increase in musculature. I was already in good shape prior just a little more body fat. But all the other stuff you here about like mood, vitality, sense of well-being etc. that was not an issue before and same now. I guess we are all different in our journeys. [/QUOTE]
