My low dht and high SHBG are causing some serious issues. I went to see an endo and he stated DHTand SHBG were unimportant and had nothing to do with libido. I've read DHT controls libido and erection strength. I'm not going to another Doctor. I guess I'm left to self-medicating. Please review my labs and tell me what you think. Btw, I've tried Dhea, it raises my E2 through the roof. I've tried Nettle root for shgb and it lowered DHT to almost zero(0). Also, I'm not on any trt.
