Perhaps it's time we did our field analysis purpose of revealing how PM/Hrt effects us differently. I ask that if you've (male/female/trans) had recent blood/salvia work completed that it be shared here (this thread). Our analysis skills (though not expert) can decipher a near free T %, based on total T and SHBG test results. I should be able to determine free Estadiol with that same information (along with serum estrogen total).
Sample posting:
Total Testosterone ___ng/dL Lab reference _____ng/dL
Estrogen ___pg/mL Lab reference ______pg/mL
SHBG ___nmol/L Lab reference _____nmol/L
Prolactin, progesterone listed similarly.
What we need to find out is what exactly PM/HrT and other supplements are doing for us. It would be helpful to have included the brand(s) of these products, as to how it relates to the potencies and what if any effects are seen.
A few examples of what I mean, does NBE herbs raise SHBG netting a lower free T?, or what does PM do to total T, does it raise total T and inhibit DHT?........E2 lowers FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) that inhibits aromatase and thereby reduce Spermatogenous, these combinations and others can be addressed here at BN for our own unique analysis.
Thanks so much.
