High T, FSH, SHBG, Low E2 No Libido. My Lab Results (pellets)

In this situation one suspects?

high SHBG, get that tested
TT is inflated by SHBG+T, overstating your T status
FT is decreased by SHBG+T
T production may be low. LH may be low or testes not working very well.

You can test LH/FSH to see that the signals are. Also check AST to eval liver. SHBG is made in the liver. List all medications of odd things about diet/supplements.

Your low E2 is not promoting high SHBG, but low T might be.

I found the above statement from @ksman on another post. I have always wondered if the high shbg was artificially inflating my T numbers since they were so high. Plus, I could never get the doctors to explain to me why I had such High T numbers and such terrible free T / free T percentages.

I have been taking boron as a supplement for a while, and the Endo suggested I stay on it in an effort to reduce SHBG.
