[QUOTE="riverside, post: 88059, member: 14064"] Thanks for this post, Kettlebells. Success stories are always great to read! For your Free T reading of 12.6, what was the range? My range has a top end of 18.1 ng/dl so that doesn't seem all that low in contrast to your low Total T. I am not a diabetic but have not responded well to PDE5 inhibitors in the past which I attribute to a complete lack of a libido which I would say has occurred in most of my life and definitely during my 1st year of TRT. I have done more research and reading posts in the last 1.5 years than is probably healthy and I haven't found much information/science for feeling good with normal to high end Free T labs BUT having low Total T. If anyone has found this information, please add a link to this thread. I think there is also an impact for us low SHBG guys from Free E2. I would love to see one of our doctors or veterans weigh in on impacts to low SHBG guys for: Does any level of low Total T matter if Free T is in range or is high range? How do we determine the optimal level of E2 when we most likely have high free E2 and only test for total E2? I would assume we need a lower total E2 than normal SHBG guys. [/QUOTE]
