[QUOTE="FunkOdyssey, post: 227966, member: 44064"] I'm a couple weeks into TRT now so that decision has been made, however I am wondering how I would be classified based on these labs. I took some tests twice, about a week apart, to verify the results. I'm a high SHBG, low Free T type of guy, with an elevated FSH. I haven't been able to find much information about the significance of high FSH in the absence of high LH. The sertoli cells are not happy I guess? I suppose a second question would be, would you also have started TRT with these lab values combined with the full compliment of low T symptoms?
