Six weeks on TRT
Hi there, I started TRT six weeks ago. 175mg a week got my labs results recently and everything looks good lipids, liver, kidneys but my total testosterone is 1859 and my free testosterone is 289 Estradiol 50 I feel good no side effects but is my total testosterone normal to be this high? Also, any recommendations to increase my free testosterone?

I'm on week 10 and just had my blood work. 160mg/wk split into 4 weekly pins. Total t: 1602, Free t, 469, SHGB, 30, E2: 74. Put on 17lbs of glycogen/water. Fortunately no real edema. Strength has gone up 20-30lbs on machines and plates. Anemia was resolved with my hgb and hct back into normal range. Libido back. Still surprised that my total and free t levels were that high. They were 244 and 40; SHGB 25 pre-trt.

@Alex Perez you may not like my answer, but i don't know specifically. i eat super clean/track macos, high protein, weight train and 9-10k steps daily. hydrate quite a bit too and 8hrs of sleep. i just don't know what directly contributes to shbg. trt is all i take other than multivit, creatine, and eaa's. i should ask you how do you keep your e2 at 50? :) Also, how many times a week do you pin?
