[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 181604, member: 15043"] U could always go get ur SHBG tested urself through the life extension website or discounted labs. Life extension has their yearly sale going right now, so might be cheaper with them. For me, the direct free T test has correlated perfectly with my symptoms, and isnt useless at all, imo. But everyone’s results may differed I guess. When I was 27 my total T was around 700, and free T around where urs is, maybe slightly higher, and I felt horrible. Got on HRT and felt a million times better. I’m with Defy now, and I’m almost positive they would treat u with that level of free T, and going by ur symptoms. They’re not stupid, they know the total doesn’t really matter. So if u end up deciding to want to try HRT, just call up Defy. The first 3 years of HRT sucked for me. Went to a local hormone guy, and spent a ton of money, and messed around with HCG monotherapy, Clomid monotherapy, as well as Clomid and nolvadex together. Hormones were all over the place. Then went to a local clinic in the Boston area, and had an even worse experience. Literally all they tried to do was suck as much money out of me as possible. Then I finally did my research and tried to find the best clinic in the U.S., that would treat me in Massachusetts. I ended up going with Defy, and they’ve legit been a godsend. I literally couldn’t be happier with them. I’m not affiliated with them in anyway. Just trying to help others not make the mistakes I did. If I could go back, obv I would of went straight to Defy from the beginning. My advice is to go to the life extension website and order their total and free T test, as well as their SHBG test, If results come back with total T healthy, free T very low again, and SHBG very high, I would call up Defy, see if they’ll treat u, if yes, then just get the rest of the labs they require for an initial consult, send them a recent physical, and setup the appt for the initial consult and get things started. Life’s too short too feel like u do. When I had very low free T I felt like a shell of myself.
