[QUOTE="DS3, post: 167326, member: 18514"] "You assume that total testosterone doesn't change. But if underlying metabolism stays the same then free testosterone must be preserved to maintain the consumption/excretion rate. So it is total testosterone that adjusts to make it work." According to what? Besides your anecdotal studies of yourself (wherein your hypothesized peaks using your trough values), where are you generating this information from? The current thought in medicine is that free testosterone is determined by binding globulins, namely Albumin and SHBG. What evidence do you have that suggests different other than a few personal tests? What evidence do you have that suggests changes in SHBG would decrease total T as opposed to affecting only Free T aside from a highly theoretical thought-process? Also, where is your evidence that testosterone has to be 'free' in order to be excreted? Can you confidently state with evidence that the body cannot excrete bound testosterone (either by Albumin of SHBG) and that the testosterone must first be unbound before it can be excreted? [/QUOTE]
