[QUOTE="JRos895, post: 210369, member: 43163"] It seems like some users don’t buy into the notion that low shbg is cause to inject more often. But the math is relatively simple: take two men: Man A has a FT percentage of 2% and Man B has a FT percentage of 3%. If both take 100mg of T a week, and each has a TT peak of 1000 and trough of 500, then Man A will have a FT peak of 20 and FT trough of 10, whereas Man A will have a FT peak of 30 and a FT trough of 15. The difference in Man A’s peak and trough is 10 and the difference in Man B’s peak and trough is 15. True, both have the same FT peak-trough of 2. But in terms of evaluating symptoms, it’s better (I believe) to judge peak-trough differences in absolute difference vs relative percentage differences. One would likely feel little difference between an FT of 1 versus an FT of 2. One would likely feel a large difference between an FT of 10 and an FT of 20. In both cases, the peak-ratio is 2, but obviously the latter case is a more significant difference. Therefore, men with low SHBG are more likely to feel more significant differences between their peaks and troughs at a given dose. Why isn’t this more universally accepted? Or am I missing something?
