[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 155669, member: 15043"] Seems like all the research, and anectodal evidence, and pretty much every current expert’s opinion that I follow, leads to 100% no being the answer. I honestly haven’t heard of there being any negatives to high SHBG. What are some that you can think of? The only negatives that I can think of, are not really associated with having high SHBG, but more so the causes of it. I’m mostly referring to phytoestrogens from chemicals in the food, water, air, skin products, etc. Probably EMF’s lead to an increased SHBG as well. I’ve honestly never heard of there being negatives to having high SHBG, but the causes are what worry me. Lowering SHBG with drugs doesn’t eliminate the underlying cause for the high SHBG, so I don’t see the point. It’s unnecessary to lower it, imo. I’d stop wasting time worrying about things you shouldn’t be worrying about, like SHBG, and focusing your time and energy in the right places. And this is coming from someone with high SHBG, that has literally almost tried everything to lower it, and successfully lowered it a few times. But it’s made no difference. I’ve gotten it down to mid 30’s, from high 50’s, and noticed no benefits. All that happened is that my body compensated by lowering my total T and my free T ended up being basically identical, and I didn’t feel any benefits from having a lower SHBG. Trust me man, taking my advice right now will save you years worrying about SHBG nonsense. Years that I unfortunately can’t get back. Learn from my mistakes! Lol. [/QUOTE]
