    That was me. That test ended up being completely bogus because I wasn't told that I need to take my blood tests first thing in the morning. I re-tested and showed no change in testosterone or serum DHT. However, I have read that SP does not reduce serum DHT, it only reduces DHT binding to the androgen receptors.
