Thanks for your replies Vince and Systemlord!

My PSA is low and I'll keep an eye on that. 

My SHBG levels are:

Pre-TRT           43   (19-76)

Currently        36    (11-80)

I had an E2 sensitive test in Jan/18 after 3 months on TRT that was 27 (8-35).  The latest round of tests were done through the hospital where I work and they had no clue what E2 sensitive was and they just did the typical E2 test. So I'll get another sensitive E2 done through DiscountLabs like the one I did in January.  I'll also pull another T/Free T test at that time on a day were my trough will be more accurate.  I have been wondering how lowering my weekly injected T and using the SubQ route would effect my levels so I'll just keep making slow changes and getting tested to see how it works.

Out of 15 tests done two weeks ago, the highest I'm paying out of pocket for a test is $10 (pretty darn good), with the exception of DHT, which the insurance company claims is medically unnecessary and will cost me $140 dollars.  I'm getting a good idea of how to get testing done inexpensively where I can, and going to an online source like DiscountLabs when I need to.

Does anybody have suggestions about my low low progesterone labs and the idea of adding pregnenolone to the mix?  I'll keep studying and being patient as I figure out my optimum TRT dosing regimen. I appreciate all the candid communication on this forum!
