question from a user
You are saying that less frequent injections will force the liver to produce more SHBG because of high peaks. So for people like me with naturally low SHBG, isn’t this a good thing then since I want my levels to be or get to a normal range?

We try to keep answers general in order to make sure we are not upsetting the mods, so sorry if it was rambling.
But if you want to raise your SHBG, then fewer injections will accomplish that.
Normal SHBG levels will make it less likely that you develop side effects, and less likely you produce too much estradiol or DHT.
