Is High Testosterone the Cause of Sexual Addiction?

An easily triggered male being by a female partner might have high testosterone level but he isn't a sexual addict, since we can speculate, that a wife can by just a simple gesture of arousing his husband, doesn't create in him a sexual addict, nay a loving faithful husband.

I previously wrote about papaya fruit being a possible angelic fruit or chastity fruit. I am rather old now and isn't still married while worrying about my low testosterone level that is why I am asking God if my belief is a myth that God wants me to marry older so that I may not have that stronger than normal sexual arousal.

Normalizing my T level is the idea, rather than raising it.
Once an adequate level of T is achieved, additional T acts primarily as an excess. So, for example, if we take a man with normal T and normal sex drive, raising his T further will not transform him into a howling sex addict.--https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/men-sex-and-testosterone/200810/the-truth-about-testosterone-levels
It's not even lowering T level so that sexual addiction can be healed. It is healing sexual addiction itself so that a normal T level translates into a healthy male being doing God's will.

St. Augustine, pray for us!
Nofap might seem to be on the reward system we have already demythified on the idea of powerpointing. Doing good even without a reward, or carrying your Cross and following Jesus is a dagger for that idea. It nonetheless all boils down to basically this: don't deplete your testosterone and dopamine on sexual addiction. Rather, use it for good even if it means carrying a cross with Jesus or even it means doing just little good acts that fall short of the world's riches, fame, and power.
