You cannot move SHBG directly.
SHBG made in liver to scavenge estrogens, the female blueprint.
When your liver was a mess, E2 would have been very high and SHBG may still be affected by that. Orals are dangerous.
Less E2 and more bio-T will help.
Your high SHBG is creating a lot of T+SHBG that inflates TT and reduces FT. TRT with E2 near 22pg/ml 80 pmol/L will help that shift. Otherwise wait and see, but given your history, that does not seem like a place to be. SHBG may be slow to shift.
