[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 139227, member: 15832"] Testosterone can affect thyroid, but not by a large margin. It isn't uncommon to see a thyroid that is sub-clinical and once TRT commences, only then the weak link is exposed and thyroid starts struggling as TRT attempts to restore metabolic rates. Usually you'll see SHBG decrease from about midrange down to the low teens in some cases, that's why when I saw your SHBG go from 38-23 I became suspicious. The normal ranges for TSH are invalid do to the fact that when doctors went back to take a second look at the study group that made up the TSH ranges, 30% were later found to have thyroid dysfunction invalidating the ranges. [URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16148345']The evidence for a narrower thyrotropin reference range is compelling.[/URL] It should be 5.-2.5 mU/liter, not .5-4.5 mU/liter. [/QUOTE]
