Of course a blood test is just a snapshot in time but it appears that the math adds up. You Albumin is too high which is causing more of your Testosterone to be bound to it which in turn drives down your FT. This in turn will drive down your SHBG as your body tries to drive up FT. Obviously your system is out of balance and the root of the problem seems to suggest that your Abumin is too high.

Now what to do about it I have no idea. I don’t know anything about Abumin production or why it would be out of balance. I would imagine someone here might have an idea though.
Impressive post, cool name too

Is your diet good Asaxon?
