    2 years RP diet - Need your opinion - High SHBG, Low HDL, High LDL

    After almost 2 years on RP inspired diet I decided to check what is going on. I always had high SHBG and even though I switched to carbs (was on very high saturated fat diet / carnivore/keto for ~12 years and thought this is the reason) it is still 50% above upper range and barely went down/used...

    Raisin Bran for Testosterone & Libido?

    It seems like the perfect food before bed. Pros: • Wheat bran has Magnesium. • It's an Insoluble fiber which can lower estrogen. • The Raisins are good for Boron • Calcium in the Milk Here is what I'm worried about: Cons: • 80 grams of Raisin Bran has 9.5 grams of fiber. Can this raise...

    SHBG may be a good test for liver (metabolic) health

    A very good study, which probably runs counter to the "mantra" most bodybuilders adhere to - i.e. they would say one must keep their SHBG low in order to increase levels of "free" steroids since, the claim goes, only free steroids are active and capable of influencing cells. If SHBG is high, the...

    What can cause 3x normal range for SHBG ?

    A friend of mine got his SHBG results sky high - 3 times the upper normal range. Normal to high T, very low free Testosterone (due to SHBG i guess) and non-existant Estrogen below the detectable limit. He has no symptoms though except being a hard gainer. He has no health issues and actually is...

    Androsterone and SHBG in training/supplementing androsterone would be of benefit in athletes

    “To determine how weight lifting training may affect serum and urinary androgens, we measured total serum testosterone (T), cortisol, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and urinary testosterone, epitestosterone, androsterone, and etiocholanolone, in a group of 19 elite weight lifters after 20...

    Study On The Binding Of Dihydrotestosterone, Testosterone And Oestradiol With Sex Hormone Binding Gl

    These binding affinitys bring up the question of what is happening when we supplement DHT? Does it free up testosterone and estrogen,will testosterone convert to estrogen even though DHT issue oozed to suppress this? The body has probably signalled no more DHT? Nothing here breaks down the free...

    Sex Hormone-binding Globulin In Osteoporosis

    Sex hormone-binding globulin in osteoporosis. - PubMed - NCBI Abstract Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is a plasma glycoprotein that binds with high affinity to sex steroids, most notably 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone, testosterone, and 17beta-estradiol, thereby regulating their...

    Pre-diabetes And Serum Sex Steroid Hormones Among US Men

    Low circulating testosterone and SHBG yet high estraidol. SHBG has a preference to bind DHT,testosterone and lastly estraidol in that order for what I read? Abstract Several studies demonstrate a link between diabetes and sex steroid hormones, but the link with pre-diabetes remains elusive. In...

    SHBG Gene Promoter Polymorphisms In Men Are Associated With Serum Sex Hormone-binding Globulin, Andr

    This interesting in relation to the femur bone growth. SHBG gene promoter polymorphisms in men are associated with serum sex hormone-binding globulin, androgen and androgen metabolite levels, and hip bone mineral density. Abstract CONTEXT: SHBG regulates free sex steroid levels, which in...

    SHBG, Plasma, And Urinary Androgens In Weight Lifters After A Strength Training

    "Previous studies with different results have suggested that total and bioavailable testosterone levels are modified by physical exercise. Such changes may be related to modifications in cortisol levels and could be reflected in some urine androgens. To determine how weight lifting training may...

    DHT Lowers Risk Of Diabetes In Older Males

    Most endocrinologists view DHT as an almost exclusively bad hormone. Aside from the its much publicized (and likely incorrect) role in prostate cancer and MPB, endocrinologists consider DHT as a causative agent in insulin resistance and even diabetes type II. Most of that misguided opinion...

    Progesterone Lowers SHBG

    This is a first in my research of experience of endocrine hormones. High SHBG may limit the expression of testosterone and dht. Drugs like Danazol and Winstrol can dramatically lower it, but the body usually responds by lowering T production - so a goal of increasing T by this mono therapy is...
