Has Anyone Else Stopped Weight Lifting Due To Hair Loss?

It sucks.

Anecdotally speaking, I believe weight lifting causes a great increase in my DHT.

Every time when i lift weights and eat a caloric surplus with lot's of healthy fats i notice the following:

1) Increase libido
2) Deeper voice
3) more aggressive
4) body and facial hair seems to grow thicker and faster
5) greater hair shedding

Unfortunately, in my experience weight lifting increases my test levels too high.

I've quit lifting weights and now i just go for jogs. I'm very depressed.

has anyone else done this?

I've Read a significant amount of studies which show T and DHT levels are increased through weights training and they remain elevated after the moments of exercise ceases. In my case I saw a drastic increase in the rate of hairloss after I started weights training. Anectodal and I can't be sure but it was a huge difference after I started.

Didn't experience the body hair, voice or libido changes though.

Are you on finasteride? That could help balance things again.

Why lift when it's all about face?
