Part 2: The 5 Pillars of Androgen Sensitivity
How DHT, Estrogen, Thyroid, and IGF-1 Determine Whether Your Testosterone Works or Not
You can have high testosterone on paper.
But if your body isn’t listening, it’s not doing much for you.
That’s where androgen sensitivity comes in—and at the center of it is the androgen receptor (AR). If your receptors are weak, inflamed, or downregulated, testosterone becomes background noise.
In this part, we’ll cover the 5 core biological systems that determine whether your testosterone signal gets heard—or ignored.

In the rest of this article, I talk about the top things that increase or decrease androgen sensitivity and the best supplements (with links and dose recommendations) on how to optimize them.
