[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 122096, member: 15832"] SHBG scavenges sex hormones and when elevated binds up more and more testosterone, choking free testosterone, the bioavailable potion that's circulating in the blood. Doctors blindly follow guidelines that aren't based off of anything, it was thought that 200mg every 2 weeks was a good idea, until patients start complaining of a hormonal roller coasters and doctors did nothing. Doctors instruct you to take SSRI's every 8 hours do to the half life, otherwise you may experience withdrawal symptoms, it's the same with TRT only the half life is different for everyone do to SHBG and the rate at which you metabolize testosterone and for a doctor that's used to chasing reference ranges, it forces them to think for themselves, something medical school have killed off. My endo was happy with a total testosterone of 440 because it was now "in range", she said you're right where you need to be without me telling her how I feel. It's like military school, that removes independent thought and the only thing that matters is in range, out of range, black and white. TRT requires critical thinking and reasoning and that's why we men have such great difficulty finding good doctors, medical school removes critical thinking and reasoning from the equation and it turns doctors into robots.
