Hey guys.... I have a question about SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) and what its effects are during a cycle (particularly when taking test). From what I know, SHBG is a deciding factor in how much testosterone the body can use to build muscle ....the more SHBG, the less free test there is and its anabolic effects.
My question is, will SHBG affect the body's receptiveness to the exogenous test during a cycle to the same extent that it does if not cycling? Or will the larger amounts of test compensate for whatever action the SHBG has? I can see how this could be a problem for those with low test levels and / or high SHBG levels.
Also, I know there are some natural supplements that help lower SHBG, such as avena sativa and tribulus... so is it a good idea to take these supplements during a cycle?
Any feedback is appreciated!
