pgd2 linked with erections

[dps]

cant link the article, just look it up easy to find.

so apparently there is a rise if pgd2 when you get erections, now add in the increased heart rate and increased blood flow to the scalp and you got male pattern baldness.
so fap has been linked to rise of dht, now to rise of pgd2.

hahahahahaha

deny all you want.

"This suggests the presence of an intact prostanoid autocrine system that may play a role in regulating penile erectile function"

haha nice one Fred

 

[maher]

frenchy, you dropped out? how come?

 

[dps]

is that you looking at p**rn realizing its bad for your hair?

 

[frenchy]

yeah had to give up, too much internet with too much NSFW content recently :/ still holding?

 

[maher]

I sure am. Actually, i've been so busy lately didnt even cross my mind.

 

[dps]

nope, have relapsed so many times.
but why give up?
you would lie if you say, that this study doesn't give you the motivation to start again.

 

[maher]

Everyone relapses- its normal.. the point is to do many long periods of nofap. the longer, the better.

 

[frenchy]

had to give up for now caus i can't hold it anymore and will not see my girlfriend before christmass :/
as far as i know there is no proof pdg2 increase induce male pattern baldness, the only link is an increase of pdg2 in bald salp but correlation =/= causation, i havnt read the article yet just the abstract but an increase in corpus cavernosum smooth muscle cells of pdg2-> doesnt neccessay imply increase in scalp

correct me if im wrong

 

[maher]

you're right. I only supply the study.

But, its a fact that prostaglandin D2 inhibits hair growth.

 

[frenchy]

ha right, i didn't had the courage to dig into all the pdg2/PGE2 pathway yet

 

[maher]

Ever heard of genitonasal reflex?

 

[frenchy]

as a matter of fact i dont

sorry to bump this crap but I wanted to ask the NOFAPPERS something

do you abstain from sex too? Or is your penis somehow able to tell the difference between a hand and a vagina? And then your body decides only to release catastrophic levels of DHT while masturbating?

should we all become lifelong celibates to keep our hair? but if we were monks it wouldn't really matter if we had hair or not... twisted logic. You never see a bald monk right? oh wait...

 

[zzzzz]

using these studies to conclude that masturbation causes hairloss is like saying because it snows when it is cold out, that the snow must cause cold weather

no, we know for certainty dht levels and pgd2 can be affected by masturbation, not the other way around.
and your logic is stupid, since masturbation starts at an age men have full heads of hair.

this is because an increase in T and DHT after puberty causes both. This fits in perfectly with the analogy I had. It is not a cause and effect sequence of puberty causes masturbation causes male pattern baldness. Its just puberty causes both

 

[Quantum Cat]

notice he had no answer to my masturbation/sex question...

I don't expect these chronic NOFAPPERS get much female action anyway, but condemning themselves to a life of celibacy seems almost cruel

 

[maher]

QC, you dont know what you talking about. YES, I still have sex. and YES, there is a difference sex/fap. Its been heavily discussed, really.
