TRT - Self Administered?

Also looks like he did BW early correct?


If he waited wouldn't those numbers improved

GB, the concern is the amount of free testosterone that is unbound in the body. The percentage is constant, and in most men will be 2% to 3% of the total serum level. If it's higher/lower than that, then that's where the focus on SHBG will be directed. So, you could have a total serum of 300ng/dl, or it could be 3,000ng/dl, the amount in your case (right now) would be 2.64%. Again, it's not the % percentage % that is the concern, but the ACTUAL amount of testosterone in your system, which is calculated (TS * %) or (1900 x 2.64 = 50ng/dl of free test). The range is 7 - to -25ng, so you're double the max on the LabCorp reference range. Me personally, I think 18ng to 26ng/dl of free test is a long-term, sustainable range for TRT, but that's just my .02 on that. The ONLY way you will get in that 26ng/dl bracket for free testosterone is to reduce your total serum to the 1,000ng/dl or lower, which will require an adjustment to your exogenous protocol.

Hopefully this isn't confusing the matter.

I think I got it now Vette... the bold did it. I'll probably start with a small adjustment... 160g/week and then take it from there. I assume i'll probably wind up at around 120g/week though in the long run.

Early as in the time of day? Yes. I assume test numbers would have decreased later in the day, as well as cortisol.
