[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 166203, member: 15043"] What’s interesting is that on here, having a low SHBG seems like it not ideal, and makes it trickier to dial in. Seems like low SHBG guys have to really work on keeping E2 down, they may need to use ai’s more than high SHBG guys, and they may need to inject very frequently. The reason I say it’s interesting is, because dr Lichten goes against all these things and actually prefers his guys to have a low SHBG. And he has his men on either pellets, or injecting twice a week. For some reason, his low SHBG guys don’t need to inject every day to feel stable. Here’s an interview he did explaining his methods. Maybe for low SHBG guys injecting very frequently and messing with ai’s, and keeping E2 extremely low isn’t the best approaches. They’re just the only approaches we’re currently used to seeing. Maybe there’s something to dr lichten’s methods of instead lowering the testosterone dose a bit, and supplementing the protocol with deca, which will have 5 positive effects that I can think of. Lowering T dose will mean less E2. Adding the deca will raise T levels to where they were prior to lowering T, but will keep E2 down due to deca aromatizing at 1/4 the rate of testosterone. That’s one. 2nd, it binds to SHBG a bit, thus allowing for higher free T levels. This also will help improve the free T to E ratio, eliminating the need for an ai. 3rd, it’s a very long esther, which could maybe be part of the reason why his patients with low SHBG levels can get away with injecting twice per week. 4th, it is a better anti-inflammatory than prednisone, and it also has amazing joint lubricating effects, as well as improves bone mineralization/ density. 5th, it can increase dopamine, which I assume is part of the reason many men report an increased sense of well being on deca, thus improving the chances of a guy feeling “dialed in”. I could be wrong, but I think in the future, deca is going to be as commonly prescribed with testosterone as HCG is, and will mostly eliminate the need to even consider using an ai.
