Thread: Low free test

I just lowered my test dose down to trt levels. My bloods came back normal test, but low free test. What are the reasons for low free test but normal test? Do I just add some proviron?

When you say low how low are we talking, and what are the numbers it's hard to answer that without knowing total and free

You may need to lower your SHBG levels. Proviron may help aid in lowering those values,
but I wouldn't just add it blindly without getting tested first especially on TRT.

This^^^^

primo or mast may be a consideration as well, but bloodwork is always the correct answer.
