>SHBG binds free T which is responsible for muscle growthis it over before it even began?
your understanding of SHBG is decades outdated.The ideal combination is high total T, high free T and high SHBG
>>77303298ok now what? My free T (free androgen index is 42.range starts with 39) is on the lower end
>>77303300So you need higher total T, not lower SHBG
>>77303282its over before it began because you are technically in range, which means a doctor isnt going to prescribe. especially in europe. i doubt europe has antiaging or trt clinics like the us does.yes those values look like shit though for a younger guy but youre probably obese so it doesnt matter.
>>77303331ok, I will talk with a doc then. The reason I did the test in the first place bc I have poor sleeping quality. It will be hard to convience my doc that I need some form of TRT. Docs in germany think its devil's work
>>77303338> you are technically in rangebut my SHBG isnt and i have poor sleep quality>but youre probably obese i am 25, 6"3 and 198lbs (193cm/90kg)
>>77303349doesnt matter, all GPs are aware that young people want to try and get on TRT and they assume you cheat the tests and are being dishonest. its a waste of time. especially in germany i would bet. find an anti aging clinic.at best he might give you clomiphene or something retarded, or try to lower shbg. but who knows maybe you get lucky.
>>77303342>buy a vial of ugl test, short ester like propionate and a vial of gonadorelin>pin the test for a bit>stop cold turkey and wait 4-5 half lives>go to doc, I have low T symptoms>doc: "okay lets see, go take a blood test">pin 50mcg of gonadorelin every 75 mins 5 times before the blood draw.>LH & FSH sky high, test rock bottomDoctor: "Yes you have severe primary hypogonadism, heres your trt prescription, now fuck off"
>>77303362desu honest I dont want to take anything at all. But I dont know how to impove these values. I have a normal diet, try to sleep 8-9 hours do moderate cardio and strength training, yet I have brain fog and wakeup 1-4 times every night.
>>77303282>T is responsible for muscle growthHi OP.Please make sure to familiarize yourself with basic knowledge of the endocrine system (first-year college student): https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-27382-8Based on the inaccuracy your statement, it is obvious you have no knowledge of the subject whatsoever. For your safety, pleasure make sure you are familiar with the subject, before making any decisions that are based on total ignorance. They could harm you in the long run. Relevant to the subject at hand: the nervous is responsible for tissue development. In human males, testosterone is one of the many different hormones and ligands that is used to allocate resources within the body. Due to unhealthy aspects of life in the developed world, testosterone function is disrupted, which has resulted in generally lower levels of testosterone in the general male population. Restoring testosterone to normal levels restores the nervous system's ability to properly manage muscle tissue. This does not mean that testosterone is responsible for tissue development. This means that testosterone is one of the many different molecules involved in it, and that insufficient levels of any any of those hormones or ligands will reduce the rate at which muscle tissue can increase in mass.In layman's terms, if your favourite meal is prepared without salt, it will taste bad. Adding more salt will restore its intended flavour. This does not mean that salt alone is responsible for the flavour. All the ingredients put together are. Salt is one of them. Increasing the amount of salt beyond the normal amount will also make the meal taste bad. Increasing salt beyond an even higher amount will not only make the meal taste even worse, but make the meal impossible to eat at one point. Even more salt, and it will be toxic to eat. Bye.
>>77303282>SHBG binds free T which is responsible for muscle growthWhat the fuck, body? Between SHBG and myostatin, your body is just cucking you out of sitting on the couch and looking like an IFBB pro.
Ive got 180 total test 3.5 free test and 58 shbg how fucked am I
>>7730572024 years old btw
>>77303282SHBG is anabolic>protects androgens from aromatization>literally the transport vehicles for androgens, higher SHBG = more androgens trafficked to your musclesFree memesterone is a meme metric. It drives bitch tits and balding.
>>77305720that's cucked, I had 540 total test, 32 SHBG and whatever free test at 31 years old.>>77306488lmao no, SHBG stops free test from connecting with your androgen receptors you retard, it binds up test.
>>77306523>lmao no, SHBG stops free test from connecting with your androgen receptors you retard, it binds up test.it's true, SHBG gobbles up test and teleports it out of your body never to be used againthe ultimate gainz goblin
iirc Tongkat Ali will lower your shbg
>>77306591you know what else lowers shbg? being a fat, insulin resistant fuck with liver disease.High SHBG is a sign of good metabolic health.
