Just a theory but before this relationship I’m in now of about 3 years I was banging new sloots on the reg, living somewhat like hugh Hefner. I was in better shape and my stress was completely at 0. My body composition was way better and I felt amazing. Could monogamy possibly lower test? Thoughts?

Nope. Stress, diet, activity level, etc can all play a part. Depression can play a part as well.
Relationships are hard man and before my wife I always lost motivation and got stressed and went through bad bouts of depression in every relationship until it ended. Then bam after it was over I was back on the upswing.

I'm of the opinion that your body and your hormones are always adapting to the environment around you. If you're spinning plates and out banging different women, your body's hormone levels adjust to the environment.

If you're nailed down in a shitty marriage (not all of them are shitty) where your wife has to make herself get horny once a month to fuck you, your body is going to compensate for the environment you're in and not produce the T you need.

Same with diet, age, stress, disease, etc. All these are factors that contribute to hormone levels. Get on a good cruising schedule and you don't have to worry about it.

Can monogamy lower test? I would say yes.

My wife goes on a week long trip with her mother and one of her sisters every year or so and by day 3 I feel like I'm 19 again. By the time she comes home its like I'm a brand new person, feeling incredible with off the charts motivation.

By the second or third day of having her back, it's back to my "normal" (how I feel when shes gone is probably my real normal).
