According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_hormon...g_globulin SHBG binds to estrogen and testosterone. IGF-1 and prolactin reduce SHBG. SHBG levels that are too low cause problems. SHBG has higher binding affinity for DHT than Testosterone, and lesser affinity for estrogens. Estrogens raise SHBG.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydroprogesterone At least two forms of Dihydroprogesterone
5α-Dihydroprogesterone is an agonist to PR. 20α-Dihydroprogesterone is created by the corpus luteum and placenta ( http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/summary/summary.cgi?q=all&cid=8956#ec ).
