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?
