TT 1385 ng/dL, with an absurdly high SHBG 138 nmol/L.....FT is just over the top end!

As I have stated numerous times on the forum one can easily achieve a healthy let alone high-end or in many cases absurdly high FT even in cases of high/highish SHBG.

Hitting an absurdly high TT is not needed even in cases of highish/high SHBG.

The only way to know where your FT level truly sits is to have it tested using the most accurate assays such as the gold standard Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration.

Especially in cases of ALTERED SHBG!

The sad fact of the matter is many are using/relying upon inaccurate assays when testing.

Many are running FT levels much higher than they think and some of these individuals are struggling with such protocol.



TT (LC/MS-MS) 1385 ng/dL (reference range 264-916 ng/dL)
FT (Equilibrium Ultrafiltration) 32.96 ng/dL (reference range 5.00 -21.00 ng/dL)
SHBG 138 nmol/L

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
