something i read on masturbation and hairloss

[youngguy_uk]

hey guys

firstly, i know this site is a well-informed site etc. and that stupid "scare posts" arent welcome. this is more of a "scared post" though, just because of something i read that seemed to be on a pretty well informed website, which got me thinking about how this could sound logical.

i was just wondering, because testosterone is a sex-related hormone, surely there must be some link between sex and dht? i was thinking...doesnt it make sense that, when you are building up to ejaculation (whether during sex or hairloss), id think youre releasing more testosterone? so surely doesnt this mean there is more testosterone to be converted to dht? doesnt this seem logical?

or, there might be a different possibility. lots of people on here have often said some men seem to rely more on dht than others for their sex drive (which explains variance in side effects caused by dht inhibitors). so if masturbation and sex increases, isnt the sex drive stimulated more so more dht is being produced?

anyway, i am not saying "masturbation will speed up hairloss" or trying to intentionally cause worry, id like to make that clear. im just posting because im at a make or break point in my regimen working or not and want to know exactly what might or might not be speeding up hairloss.

heres a quote from the site i saw this on:

"To the Rescue:

Over-masturbation or over-ejaculation converts too much testosterone into DHT. High levels of DHT overload the body causing baldness and possible prostate enlargement if blood circulation is poor in the prostate area. Reducing the frequency of masturbation or ejaculation will help maintain low levels of DHT and avoid hair loss.

Besides moderating the frequency of masturbation, here are a few steps you can take in the battle:..."

ps: its not that i was shocked by this website or anything, there are plenty of other like it. i just got a bit more concerned because, thinking about it, it seemed more like it could be logical.

this thinking might also apply to the release of testosterone due to weight training, no? just suggestions of ideas, again, im not saying anything if definitely the case, just raising discussion.

I've also heard that masterbation can make you go blind and grow hair on your palms...... :lol: sorry just havin a little fun.

Honestly dude I seriously doubt it. I've also read that masterbation is healthy and good for you.

This topic has been debated to death here. Just do a seach on masterbation, or masterbate, or smacking little johnny behind ther ear.

 

[youngguy_uk]

yeah the hairy palms thing is stupid...but slightly increased body hair...not possibly linked to testosterone and dht?

im just thinking along the lines of greatly increased testosterone emissions when working out or ejaculating. if you masturbate regularly maybe this could have an effect? i know its been debated before, just trying to think from a more logical point of view.

 

[youngguy_uk]

ps i know there is an argument that so-and-so who is a pornstar has a full head of hair etc. but im not saying maybe it causes hairloss, am just thinking that maybe it could speed it up? ie regular masturbation meaning more dht in the body.

The thing I found funny was the kid who'd screwed up his dick and prostate from masturbaing too much. I can't believe that sh*t. I pulled the goalie so much when I was a kid and well into my twenties, and still do! From what I can tell I don't have any nerve damage. Also who says masturbating increases testerone, which in turn increases dht production? I'm no doctor though I haven't come across that before.

 

[youngguy_uk]

well i thought, with some sureness, that aggression (weight lifting) and sex drive (sex or masturbation) demanded increased testosterone. hence when someone feel horny, thats due to a release of testosterone...

You can post articles like that until hell freezes over... they ain't gonna change MY habits vis a vis masturbation.

You can take away my hair... but NO WAY am I going to let you take away the simple pleasures of masturbation. Sorry, I just don't think it is all that important enough of a factor in affecting hairloss to even think about giving it up.

I have a very healthy sex life, and sex drive so there is no way I am going to stop something I truly love in life. Not just masturbation, because if your going to stop masturbating, you must stop sex as well.

Stopping this is only a hairloss treatment for the truly paranoid with little chances of having the slightest succes.

C'mon folks, live life. So Happy wanking and F-ING.

Enjoy a women every chance you get, and yourself if need be.

Youngguy - use this bit of advice and it will save you thousands of hours of tormenting over incredibly silly questions:

"Do you know several people who ______________ (masturbate, work out a lot, eat bad food, smoke, you fill in the blank) who also have a completely full head of hair? If the answer is YES then you also have your answer as to whether these things cause hair loss"

Simple as that. Put on your thinking cap. Very basic logic

I have carried out a bit of research in this area. There is an overwhelming opinion within medical research suggesting the link between hairloss and high frequency musterbation and sex. If you guys are serious about stopping hair loss and reversing it then stop musterbating and indulging in sex too often. Ofcourse, some guys are lucky in that they are not exposed to male pattern baldness like most of you and so they can go on enjoying themselves. Any DHT you are reducing from the scalp by using stuff like spironolactone is negated by the excess production of it during the process sexual activity. Guys, you need to give up your addiction or make the choice betwwen enjoyment and looks.

Regarding the comments by Hairloss moderator,
Yes, you will find guys with full head of hair that do all those thing you mentioned, but these people are not genetically predisposed to male pattern baldness.

What's the point of going through all this trouble to have great hair if we can't f***? I mean, isn't getting laid the reason why we WANT the nice hair?

No one expects anyone to stop for the sake of regrowing hair. But, it is best to do it in moderation.

Yeah... Let's hear some real quotes from doctors on this, and Doctor Mom doesn't count.

All of you guys are in denial.
