if your being competitive , not just relaxing while playing.
everyone on here thinks gaming is a death sentence for your T-levels, but they’re completely missing the Winner Effect. it’s about the psychology of dominance. When you’re playing competitive games and you’re actually the best dominating ranks and winning your brain triggers a massive dopamine and testosterone feedback loop. It’s a biological survival mechanism where winning a "conflict" even a digital one, signals your body to upregulate androgen receptor sensitivity to prepare for the next time. If you spent your puberty in that constant state of high-intensity competition, your body was basically marinating in a win-streak hormonal profile and that can lead to increased masculinised features.
