Bicalutamide, SHBG and free E2
I wasn’t sure where else to ask about this. I’ve been wondering a few things about bicalutamide.
So to my understanding, bicalutamide does not work by lowering overall T, but instead by blocking androgen receptors.
I would assume this leaves testosterone to be bound to SHBG, which also increases free estradiol percentage.
Is that assumption correct?
Would this result in more bioavailable E2 than monotherapy?
