I knoww for some reason they said they'd only test those if I was trying to get pregnant-- maybe if I actually PAY for it instead of getting it issued from a doctor then I can get E & P. IDK why they just couldn't include it :/

Thank you I was worried about that. it says the range for 18-30y/o women is 59-432, mine was 229. I guess it could always be lower, though. I was actually interested in my SHBG at the time, bc it was high. I was looking up that high SHBG might cause breast decrease, I was thinking that was my problem for a long time (with breast decrease/fluctuations)

Oh, I think I do remember saying something to you about SHBG at some point... And yeah, that did seem a bit high.

As for the testing, I'm not surprised... It sucks, but it doesn't surprise me. However, that's why I said what I did about independent testing. That's how I worded it, but I did mean pay for it from an independent lab, not going through your regular doctor and all the red tape rigamarole.

yeah i'll do that when I have a little extra $$
do you think SHBG could be a problem for me? would it being too high cause breast decrease? My theory was that when my E & P drop (around menses/mid cycle) then the high levels of SHBG can over ride them and that is what may cause the decrease.. because that is when I have my fluctuations, during menses and mid cycle, before ovulation.
