As reference my labs from a couple weeks ago.
SHBG= 52 nmol/L (down from 77 nmol/L)
Total T = 3 ng/dL (down from 12 nag/dL)
Free T = 0.039 ng/dL = 1.3 %. (Up from a .90%)
Bioavailable T= 0.975 ng/dL = 32.5 %
Free E2 = 1.27 ng/dL = 1.34 %.
Estrogen 952 pg/mL (Up from 760 pg/mL)
My SHBG went down from 77 to 52, as a result my free T percentage jumped, even though my total T went down to 3 ng/dL........basically meaning no T. However, in stil seeing DHT creep in how often I shave (denoting adrenal DHT impact).
So, this tells me adrenal DHT still has a major impact even in the absence of total T, my goal should be to reduce DHT in the adrenal androgen pathway.
