Having high SHBG makes it difficult to get a good level of Free Testosterone. One may have a high Total T number but with high SHBG, a low Free T number, which can leave you with "Low T" symptoms because most of your T is bound to the SHBG. I would definitely ask your doctor how he handles this situation and if he has no answer or says it does not matter, that may be a red flag that perhaps this Doc is not as experienced with TRT as he has indicated.
SHBG levels - both high and low - are difficult to adjust. It is said that supplemental Vitamin D may help lower SHBG, and high levels of injected T can lower it, but all in all, one's SHBG level is not easily adjusted. I have low (below the lab range) SHBG so I know from experience.
