Those are the relative binding strengths of different proteins and enzymes to a single hormone, testosterone. I listed the relative binding strengths of different hormones to a single protein: SHBG.
Could you explain what that means ... I never got to that part .... how does that interact to the order that different proteins and enzymes to a single hormone, testosterone. This is for sure a piece of the puzzle that I'm missing and may help me to understand lots more. If you want to point me to some readings that's fine too.
Would that mean that SHBG would 1sr bind to the DHT in your body .... then what's left would bind with the Total Testosterone leaving behind Free T and Bioavail T ... and finally bind with the Estrogen in your body? How strong is the SHBG Binding to DHT and Estrogen .... by lowering SHBG do you then have more Free T .... plus more DHT and Estrogen is available to bind with receptors?
