Will the church go back to it’s polygamy roots? The numbers point to yes.
A study done in 2008 showing a large gender gap and growing quickly as men of the church leave their Mormon faith in droves. 60% of Mormons are women, 40% are men. These numbers are a few years old, and likely to be more significant today. In 2007 the gap was 56/44 by those numbers it could be as high as 64/36 today. It may be to the point now where there is enough Mormon women for each Mormon man to have two wives each!

In 1958 Bruce R. McConkie wrote a book called Mormon Doctrine he states that God will re-institute the law of polygamy after the second coming of Jesus Christ. This mirrors Brigham Young’s teaching that polygamy was commanded to usher in the new millennium.
