alright, this is the summary of my last post which most of you guys labeled gpt generated. This is not a guide
Background:
Total testosterone includes all testosterone in the bloodstream:
  • SHBG-bound (inactive)
  • Albumin-bound (weakly bound and bioavailable)
  • Free testosterone (unbound and bioavailable)
Free testosterone (2-4% of total) is bioavailable and responsible for key functions:

  • Sexual function & libido
  • Muscle growth & strength
  • Bone health
  • Fat distribution & metabolism
  • Mood & cognitive function
  • Red blood cell production
  • Hair growth
Albumin-bound testosterone is weakly bound and can easily dissociate, becoming bioavailable when tissues demand testosterone for functions like muscle growth or sexual activity. This doesn’t require external intervention and is influenced by:

  • Tissue demand: When tissues need testosterone (e.g., for muscle growth or sexual function), androgen receptors signal the release of testosterone from albumin.
  • Blood circulation: Constant movement helps release bound testosterone.
  • Environmental factors: Changes in blood pH, temperature, or albumin levels can trigger dissociation.
Tissue demand for testosterone rises during activities like exercise, stress, or sexual arousal, signaling the body to release more bioavailable testosterone. In muscles, exercise boosts demand for testosterone to support growth and repair. During stress, hormone balance shifts, increasing the need for testosterone. Sexual arousal stimulates testosterone release to enhance sexual function.

These activities activate androgen receptors in tissues, prompting the dissociation of albumin-bound testosterone, making it available to meet the body's needs.
