>Could you please tell me what you think? He likes to sleep about 20 hrs a day -

is it low testosterone, or rt3 problems? What would you do? He's 24 It isn't

much of a life for him.

Low T3 = low SHBG

Normal T3 = Normal SHBG

High T3 (to the extent of hyperthyroid) = high SHBG = lower free T.

The concerns about SHBG and testosterone come from body builders who

are abusing both substances, they want high T levels to build muscle

and at the same time hyper levels of T3 to speed their metabolism and

lose weight. They find that they are not getting the " benefit " of the

testosterone they supplement when they also take T3 to the hyper

extent because going hyper increases SHBG.

Normal levels of circulating Ft3 give the same levels of SHBC as a

normal person who has the same levels of T3 naturally.

It sounds like your son needs adrenal checks, a minimum of 12 weeks on

T3 only, and then a month or so after RT3 clears and things settle

down retest the Testosterone levels and supplement if they are still

low.
