High SHBG after PCT
Hey guys I'm wondering what I can do about my SHBG.
My total t is around 700 but my SHBG is at 60(15-55) High leaving me with very little free test.
Everytime I take SERMS my SHBG gets elevated over the ranges and last time 6 months after pct it was still elevated.
The only time my SHBG was normal it was 19(15-50)and that was the one cycle I didn't pct (well I did bit it turned out to be bunk)
Now its only been a few weeks since PCT so I'm going to give it a full 8 weeks after PCT to see where I'm at but I'm thinking that it my shbg is still high, I can do a 6 week prop and masterpn cycle, which will lower it as my test levels rise, and I keep estrogen controlled. Then just come off without serms and let my body recover.
I feel 6 weeks of suppression will have my shbg normalzied wat faster then waiting it out.
Suggestions??

What are your LH and FSH at? These are important for bringing your HPTA back into homeostasis. Not going to get into a big long dissertation on positive and negative feed back loops but you can search it at the top of the eroids web page. FYI your test can be high but your SHBG can also be high. If you have nothing preventing conversion of test to estrogen and suppressing the SHBG and Albumin, like proviron, than they are going to fight to regulate your receptors. Also naturally your body produces testosterone, everybody knows this; but SHBG and Albumin take up about 98% of the test you produce leaving only 2% to be shuttled to muscle cell receptors. That, as you already know by your post, is free test.
Might try a low prop dose along with Mast prop 100 ED and100 mg proviron ED for about 21 days. Then jump immediately into a power PCT regiment with HCG at 2500 EOD for 8 days. Prolonged use of masterone and proviron can also lead to prostrate enlargement. Look up power PCT for details.
AnonThanks for the reply. Keep in mind these levels are 1 week after PCT
LH 7(1-8)
FSH 7(1-15)
estradiol sensitive 12(3-70)
total t 783 (347-1197)
free t 12 (9-21)
SHBG 60(15-55)
my estrogen is actually low, at least on the sensitive panel so I don't understand what's causing my rise in SHBG. Especially since it was 19 naturally , and 33 on TRT
the thing is the serms are what elevate my shbg so if I did 3 weeks of that cycle I believe it would cone down quite a bit but then the power pct would just bring my SHBG back up. This is why I suggested just coming off maybe even tapering a 6-8 week cycle and letting my body come back on its own. I appreciate the response.
maybe some proviron on its own right now?
Give them a vote if you find it helpful.PermalinkProviron alone may bring your test levels down a bit but not by much. It would be interesting to see what impact provi alone would have on the HPTA and the test levels as well as the SHBG. I say go for it. Try just 50 a day for thirty days and then take another blood panel.
RustyhookerProp and mast won't lower sbh. What's your bf % ?. Rerun bloods as you commented. High levels of outside hormones raise sbh. It's how your body fights to get axis back to equal.
What's last cycle too. Just curious.
AnonCorrect me if I'm wrong but higher levels of testosterone or lower levels of estrogen will lower SHBG. That is why while on TRT even with my estrogen higher then normal my shbg dropped about 30 points.
anywho I was on TRT for a year and got off 11 months ago. This was my second pct since getting off. Ran about 80mgs cyp alongside hcg the whole time . Body fat has definitely gone up since stopping. I'd say around 15% now. I just start getting a little energy to workout after this second pct. I'm also taking d3 and zma to help lower SHBG.
I guess I can just wat right workout and supplement and hope my body finds homeostasis sometime this year huh?
