[QUOTE="Welshlad87, post: 255552, member: 45094"] Hi all, Wondering how much genetics plays a role in secondary sex characteristics vs total testosterone levels. I read a paper (attached) which shows that professional athletes have testosterone levels around 500-600ng/dl, which is around my levels but i have very poor secondary sex characteristics. Low muscle and bone mass the most significant. Although in this report the athletes SHBG was quite a bit lower than what i have around 20-25 nmol/l where as mine is around 45 nmol/l. Recent blood work has shown i have Free T of around 9ng/dl. In this report using the figures provided most athletes were around 12-16ng/dl. Is this significant enough to affect secondary sex characteristics over what i have. Or could there be other genetic factors influencing this? [/QUOTE]
