[QUOTE="Jason Sypolt, post: 166208, member: 13328"] This makes sense, but it assumes that a steady state exists. It may not due to various reasons, or ever, particularly on a case by case basis. The fact is that no one knows how all of these processes work. I am actually a bad example because the way my body works is considerably messed up from being prescribed isotretinoin as a teen. What I can tell you in my own case based on multiple lab draws in the same day is that Total T fluctuates 1000 points in an 8 hour period with Free following proportionately on daily Prop. There is a spike in serum T as you would expect and then it simply isn't present mere hours later. This repeated on a smaller scale of 200-300 points intra-day on daily Cypionate. I had an unknown/invisible thyroid problem fixed, high RT3, and over 8 months on Liothyronine my SHBG doubled from 12 to 25. Now I take Enanthate TIW instead of QD. My Total T labs now come back almost always within 100 points of each other with Free T almost identical. Sometimes the results are exactly the same. There are certainly other variables that were not examined and tested, but one variable that did change and was tested was SHBG. So no, a definite conclusion linking SHBG as the cause cannot be drawn from that, but it was observed and present. On the other hand, dismissing it as a myth is equally inconclusive, just as some dismiss the importance of RT3 as a myth. [/QUOTE]
