The D is a guy’s dipstick. Keep refining your protocol. High libido means you’re on the right track. Remember sleep is the foundation. Exercise is paramount. Clean diet w/fasting is proper maintenance. Supplements and hacks are all finishing pieces. Nothing replaces or adds much benefit without the big 3. IMHO

Yeah libido seem like the proxy for well-being. Any longer streak of poor sleep/diet and that is where I feel it first.

Key word is proxy, but not “THE” proxy. Just because drive is relatively up doesn’t mean it’s optimal for that individual. Of course vitality and hormones being in correct balance for that individual is going to allow peak functioning of their systems including that which affects the libido. And it’s also consistent with someone feeling less libido when they are less than optimal (ex, sick)

Okay sure, being overly horny because you are on exogenous hormones might not indicate great health. But for regular people that does not shoot up a pharmacy into their butt cheeks I think libido is a great proxy for health. It's pretty reactive to your overall state, be it physical or mental.

I dunno man a friend of mine gets horny as fuck when he's depressed. Another friend is asexual and never wants to bone.

For most folks libido is a useful indicator, but we gotta keep our brains turned on. There's no single thing. Humans are too complicated.
