Random question: is there DHT in semen?

[JohnC43]

If so, is it important to wash your hands extra vigorously after "taking care of business" before shampooing?

Most importantly, is DHT ever present on the exterior of the reproductive organs? Seeing as the majority of DHT is harbored in the prostate and testicles, could it seep through the thin layers of skin to the surface? I know these sound like dumb questions, but men scratch and handle themselves several times a day, and many (esp those with male pattern baldness) habitually run their hands through their hair. It stands to reason that the two will undboutedly take place in the same time frame without hand washing between, thus putting DHT in direct contact with the exterior of your scalp and in your hair. That just can't be good. Again, I apologize for the randomness or if I offended anyone with the detail in here, I am sure it is something others have considered....I have been curious about this for a while and finally got around to posting it.

im not too worried. i don't c*m all over my hand then rub my head/face with my hands.

if you're that concerned about semen maybe jerk off with gloves so you don't "contaminate" yourself with yourself lol ...

Is there a HALL OF FAME of the funniest and dumbest question and theories on this board?? It really should be, Cassin! haha :woot:

This is not a stupid question at all:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7440011

Testosterone and 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone concentrations in human seminal plasma.Le Lannou D, Massart C, Chambon Y, Nicol M, Allannic H.
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) were estimated by radioimmunoassay in human seminal plasma. Testosterone concentrations showed no significant differences between fertile and infertile semen samples, whereas DHT concentrations were significantly lower in azoospermic and oligozoospermic samples. It is concluded that testosterone derives essentially from the accessory sex glands, whereas DHT is mainly of testicular or epididymal origin. The low DHT concentrations found in seminal plasma of oligozoospermic and azoospermic patients is probably due to defective epididymal conversion of testosterone to DHT.

So the answer is: yes!

well....

 

[muhu]

does this mean my hair's been falling off because I use my own juices as hair gel?

Hilarious. But really, if you look at it objectively it is a legit if neurotic question.

 

[Petchsky]

Yeah I suppose John, just a new one is all

 

[macimate]

As number #2 stated, I dont really rub my c*m all over my scalp, hahaha!

does that mean that regular wanking will help in fighting hairloss :hairy:
hahahaha well i guess pornhub could be an exciting addition to a regimen :turned:

according to gene science the opposite affect should happen..... Overdosing a area with the cause of baldness especially when it is linked with your own genetics should grow hair.... That is how they do gene therapy they take the persons own genetically coded material and treat the genes that are coded (with bad code)with the bad code until the gene alters to the oppossite effect...I couldn't find the discover of this theory but I learned this years ago and contemplated trying to prove it....so don't worry.... rub it all over you'll be fine... just joking.... I believe that the question is a fair question.... and you are safe....

Did you accidentally swallow?

dht is made within the hair follicle itself....wouldnt matter if you got a facial. youre still going bald until you get on finasteride and nizoral!
