[QUOTE="Bentiger07, post: 113498, member: 13543"] Vince, Thank you. I didn't know testing for Free Estradiol could be useful. I'll include that. Because of T cyp's long half-life, I'm waiting a few more weeks to see if I continue to feel well. Figured I should wait 4-5 weeks before retesting for that same reason. Naturally, before starting HRT, I was a low T and low E2 guy for years. Since changing to this latest daily protocol with no AI, an unexpected welcoming bonus is my joints hurt less and my muscles feel more loose. I'll consider what you said after seeing where my levels are. My SHBG results over the past 1-2 years were generally on the high end of low, or low end of normal. As you noticed with lower SHBG guys, free T was usually slightly out or range on high side. My doctor did consider having me take shots more than twice a week but ultimately thought twice a week was fine. I suppose because I mentioned I was feeling progress (now I know that while I was, it may have not been optimal) and because I was dumb enough to ask if I could do 1 injection a week, the doctor kept things as is. By reading more and experimenting a little with daily shots, I now understand and feel that low SHBG guys will generally feel better with more frequent shots. [/QUOTE]
