what is the effect of high testosterone lvls?

[Bonafide]

Im just curious...I've heard it makes men more calm, confident and relaxed, and then on the other hand I've also heard the complete opposite which is that it makes men angry and irratable. I don't know if I have ever experienced a spike in test...but I remember one time where I felt on top of the world...and approaching was not a problem...but it lasted only for a day

Elevated natural testosterone makes a man feel more confident and in control. The aggression and anger you talk about are caused by androgens - that is why bodybuilders get "roid rage" when they're juicing.

Other way round

I think that this is other way round ,that means I think that high testosterone makes men wild and angry and all sort of top of the world things,I think i have indeed felt it many times.

stop playing with yaselfs for a week and i reckon it'll have the same effect...your testosterone will be built up aswell that way

Your testosterone levels decrease only slightly during masturbation/sex. Your body replenishes it back to equilibrium fairly quickly.

Testosterone does not get "built up".

Ok i respect what you say here, but how come your sex drive decreases for a few days, maybe more (depending on the individual) right after masturbation?.

Everything I've read seems to indicate that sexual activity increases your Testosterone level.
For example:

But there turns out to be a confounding factor: Acting aggressively and having sex both raise testosterone levels, so the correlation seems due to behavior driving the hormones, rather than the other way around. This phenomenon has been discussed in many leading texts on the subject.

Germen scientists have found that having an erection can boost circulating testosterone levels naturally. Aim to have at least one per day!

Sex also has an impact on testosterone levels. It is ideal to have sex at least once a week to maintain high testosterone levels. It is known that your testosterone levels rapidly drop if you haven't "released" in over a week.

As for your original question, the effects of an increased Testosterone level include, among other things, ability to generate muscle mass more quickly, increased sex drive, and increased sperm count.

In other words, you want as much of this stuff in your body as possible! (Without hitting the roids, obviously)

Dudes, there could easily be simple psychological reasons behind that.

That's how you're suposed to increase it. duh.

 

[Bonafide]

^Yes that is what I heard.

I think having sex increases testosterone though. I mean after I have sex I always feel more confident and happy, sometime even more energetic.

Notice those guys who dont get any *****...they are always ashamed and depressed...then they lose their drive...low test?

It's like this:
Low test: P U S S Y.

Always depressed, no energy, etc. I don't even want to discuss this ****er.

High test: Macho!!
Enthusiastic, dominant, has energy for sports, socializing, you name it! The dude who is always up for a challange and is never ever down! You get it, i'm sure you do.
