I think it makes sense, actually. SHBG binds estrogen. Therefore, less E2 would be floating around my serum.
bodybuilders (steroid users, specifically) try to get their E2 in the mid 20’s range on sensitive assays, or even higher.
Many symptoms have improved such as energy (although it still not where I’d like it to be), ED has improved slightly, and overall sense of wellbeing is better. So yes, I’ve made slight progress, but not cured by any means. I’d say overall I’m operating at like 50% of my prior self? Hard to gauge as different symptoms have different percentages. Libido is at like 10% of before, for example, while memory and concentration are at like 90%.
