A member asked:
Total t above normal (1100) but free t below normal because of high shbg. should i take testim? (is total t irrelevant?)

Don't know what your: free T value is, but discuss w/doctor. Doubt there is an indication for testosterone replacement but it would depend upon a number of factors and lab results which we don't have available.
