    test binding to SHGB

    ok, is there a compound that helps to stop Test from binding to Sex Hormone Binding Globulin(SHBG)? We all know Test becomes literally useless when this happens. Is there a way to prevent or help diminish the amount that binds? JC

    I do believe AI's lower SHBG and some steroids like proviron (not anabolic ) or winstrol . I have not studied the topic in great length, bump for better response.

    Only thing I can find is Winstrol , from Hooker's profile
    One novel use for Winstrol in any cycle (perhaps even bulking) would be to use it at a very limited dose, in order to lower SHBG. (2) One of the properties of Winstrol is it’s profound ability to lower SHBG much more than other steroids. A dose of .2mg/kg lowered SHBG significantly, which would in turn, raise the amoung of free testosterone circulating in the body

    Proviron binds to the SHBG quite nicely! It's still being made and some UGL's have it. It's also overseas.

    thanks spud, i'll check it out, I have used proviron in the past, like 6 years ago, havn't seen it since, it just fell of the scene kinda. Proviron is nice with nolva, instead of blocking estrogen receptors, it stops the aromatizing from ever happening, right?

    Yeah, provirion is still being made and is good stuff. It really isn't that hard to find, since it's used in medicine so often. It is essentailly DHT, so it is a potent androgen without anabolic effects. DHT has a higher affinity for SHBG than test, so it will tie up SHBG so you have more free test. For this reason provirion could help even when off cycle.

    Yeah. DHT downregulates estrogen receptors and prevents aromatization so no estrogen rebound coming off of it (unlike nova).

    Off the top of my head:

    Oral Turinabol , Proviron , Winstrol (the last one, at around 18-20mgs will lower it by 50% or so in a 100kg man, I think)...

    I'll add more if I can remember them all...DHT lowers it, so Anadrol certainly would, and I speculate some other DHT-Derivatives would as well.
