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:
These activities activate androgen receptors in tissues, prompting the dissociation of albumin-bound testosterone, making it available to meet the body's needs.
Background:
Total testosterone includes all testosterone in the bloodstream:
- SHBG-bound (inactive)
- Albumin-bound (weakly bound and bioavailable)
- Free testosterone (unbound and bioavailable)
- Sexual function & libido
- Muscle growth & strength
- Bone health
- Fat distribution & metabolism
- Mood & cognitive function
- Red blood cell production
- Hair growth
- 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.
