Hi
Thanks for writing in.
Firstly it should be remembered that frequent masturbation has nothing to do with hair loss. It may be very difficult to assess your problem with so less information. You should consult a dermatologist for a complete evaluation and diagnosis for hair loss.

There are many conditions that can result in hair loss in male as well as females, such as alopecia areata, scarring alopecia, infections like ringworm, folliculitis, piedra, seborrheic dermatitis and folliculitis.

Alopecia areata is a genetic condition which causes sudden round patches on the scalp along with inflammation of the roots of the hair follicles. However, the hair follicles are not destroyed and hair growth continues after inflammation subsides. Folliculitis may cause hair loss and is caused by a virus, fungus, or yeast.

Sometimes a skin biopsy is conducted to confirm the diagnosis. Treatment options include corticosteroids, antifungal medication, isotretinoin, antibiotics like bacitracin and neomycin or a combination therapy using minoxidil and anthralin.

Do write in if you need more information.
Take care

Over Mastrubation

Over Mastrubation can cause all kinds of physical and mental problems besides prostate problems and testicular problems. Prostatitis is of course the most directly noticeable problem. You get pain in your prostate or testicles or lower back. Even your pelvis can hurt.

But here is a list of things you can experience from too much mastrubation:

    * Depression

    * Fatigue, even chronic fatigue

    * Male hair loss

    * Low back pain (it can be just a dull ache or severe!)

    * Eye floaters

    * Fuzzy vision

    * Memory problems

    * Absentmindedness (from depletion of acetylcholine)

    * Lack of concentration

dude ,masturbation?! it may be , but not the root cause in your problem....minoxidil only stops further hairloss and it works only for androgenetic alopecia( on bald patches on back side) ,before going for any treatment first check out what kind of hairloss is yours ? do you loose your hair from only at a partucular part or....

use that minoxidil if you are satisfied with that , mean while start using finasteride 1mg tablets this blocks DHT in your hair , which causes hair loss mostly...use multivitamins tablets should include biotin and zinc also...


even i had same kind of problem , now i have no hairfall
