Can Lifting And Exercising Speed Up Hairloss?

[ElTioLaBota]

So, im currently taking finasteride and it has slown down the pace of my hairloss, now i want to go to the gym, not to bodybuild though, just get into shape and get a lean body. Will it speed up the hairloss even if im taking finasteride? I wouldnt take proteins or kreatine, just exercising a bit.

I guess you're not planning on taking tren?
If not your safe.

As someone who exercise a lot, I would hope and think that the small amount of hormonal increase you can get from exercising would be netted out by the other health benefits you get from it. Increased circulation and overall health.

 

[michaelle]

Yeah, I think it can do that, it's because of the hormones. You should take some medicine which helps beat hairloss. I recommend that you check out that from eDrugStore.com for example. I am pretty sure that you will find something there, good luck

No it doesn't.
Been lifting for almost 2 years now, and my hair is similar to before.
Ironically, actually lost my most hair when I was not lifting.

Yes it does. Lifting increases T which increases DHT which increases hair loss. Stop lifting if you value your hair

There's absolutely zero scientific evidence to support any of what you just said unless you're on a heavy cycle of steroids. Lifting weights and exercising your body does not cause hair loss period. There's plenty of guys in my gym who have lifted all their life and show no signs of hair loss so how do you correlate that? Educate yourself before exercising such a ludicrous statement

None of them have male pattern baldness genes durr

No evidence, it is more likely it maybe improves hair health if you are unhealthy.

Plenty, look up squats and increasing test. The evidence is as old as time

No evidence that specific test increase causes hair loss.

Where do you think DHT comes from lmao

Hair loss is not caused by bloodstream DHT, it is caused by intrafollicular 5AR. The question is does working out increase 5AR activity in the follicle, and you wont find a study on that. Hair loss has less to do with DHT but more with 5AR.

 

[Norwoody]

I do think that it can, particularly with hypertrophy/power training that increases test to a modest degree; however, it probably won't make a major difference. Aerobic exercise probably has an even less of an effect. On the other hand, the increased vasodilation might counteract it altogether. Overall, I think it's safe to say that exercise is pretty negligible.

So why do bodybuilders who take Test lose their hair?
Hur Dur

 

[WaccWaccWacc]

As a human being you are expected to exercise. Please do so. No, you will not lose more hair if you started strength training, assuming you do not take any anabolics.

 

[JaneyElizabeth]

If there were any possible movement of the body that relieved hair loss, short of massage, I think that we would know it by now. Conversely, maybe there are a copy of concomitant factors that can increase hair loss but none of them appear to be significant and I don't think people losing hair should stop any life activities for "the benefit of their hair". It just won't matter, nor will eating soy or stopping ejaculation or really anything short of castration, chemical or mechanical coupled with estradiol.

 

[Haironnu]

You won't lose hair faster from lifting weights, the increased testosterone from muscle gain/fat loss is a myth and broscience, if you do get increased in testosterone, it will be marginal, it's not gonna be anywhere near as enough to actually accelerate hairloss.

but on the other hand if you start doing steroids or even TRT, then yes that will accelerate hairloss because that's gonna skyrocket your androgens

 

[Oknow]

actually lost my most hair when I was not lifting, and have pretty much maintained after lifting with LLLT + Zix

even if it did (which is does not), having hair and being very out of shape is unattractive

I used to be very skinny and despite having a good set of hair , being out of shape negatively affected me when going on dates

For a long time I refused to go to the gym in case I would ‘accelerate hair loss’, I lost hair anyway - hair line, crown, vertex

if you are that concerned, start treating your hair loss whilst going to the gym
