Not really. Some of the factors that affect testosterone levels is obesity, lower then normal metabolism, chronic consumption of alcohol, aging, and other hormones in your body can affect the way you produce testosterone. Stds usually don't affect your hormones. If you think you have a lower level of testosterone you can always see your doctor and have them suggest some hormone replacement therapies.
