The situation of good all round health markers and high TT that is confounded by too high SHBG is one that faces a lot of (mostly) younger guys.


I note that you're in Europe and have started on a course of Proviron. Hopefully that will work well for you both in terms of increasing libido and lowering SHBG.

Did you have DHT measured - I couldn't see it on your Labs. Your other numbers would indicate that a value of around 90 ng/dl would be a good balance, though relief of symptoms is more important than numbers.


I'm sure you've read the reports and studies on Proviron (mesterolone) and the somewhat conflicting information as to how much it might suppresses the HPTA in monotherapy.


My own experience of Proviron (prescribed in London) monotherapy, used initially at 25mg and titrated up to 75mg is that it was very minimally supressive (of TT) but over time lowered SHBG leading to a significant increase in FT.


Perhaps the most notable effect was the lifting of mood - like Spring arrived early.

Good mood begets improved Libido.

Give the 25mg dosage time to work - the increasing DHT - rising dopamine - improving of function appears to be synergistic and doesn't necessarily happen overnight.


If the low dose isn't working, and your Doctor permits, you may need to slowly up the dose.

By the way Excelmale is U.S. based and DHT analogs are not licenced there.
