Question about masturbation

by mdx83, Oct 03, 2007 09:55PM
I am 23 years old, I have been masturbation daily for a couple of years now and I have noticed that my hair is really starting to go thin and I can start to see my scalp.  I have already got some advice on lowering the DHT in my body (dont masturbate as much, exercise, eat fruits/veggies, stay away from red meat) but I was wondering if I do all this, will my hair grow back and get full again?  And if so, do you know how long this would usually take?

Thanks for your time.

In Chinese Laoism, Confucius say that bad masturbate is wrong for soul. when soul wrong, bad things happen because soul is bad. hair loss bad.wrong masturbate bad. unless hair loss in pubic area, this is much good. this allow easy masturbate. but if hair loss is on head, this means you masturbate wrong and thus be wrong on soul.

learn to masturbate correct. or learn to masturbate with vagina.

Oh GOSH!!! This person is weird (not you mdx, ching). You are NOT wrong to masturbate. It is perfectly NORMAL. I am married and i still masturbate. However, I don’t think anyone (unless it is a doctor/expert on the issue) can tell you exactly what the results would be if you did do all those things. If a doctor recommended that you lower your masturbation habits to help the DHT levels rise, then I would suggest that you do so. Only you can see the results. But also remember, BALD IS BEAUTIFUL!!!! If in doubt, bic it! (Shave it all off)

In men, orgasm causes a small amount of T to covert to E2, if left unconverted to E2 then T will convert to DHT in the prostate, DHT is what causes male pattern baldness, in-fact there are guys who are taking DHT suppressors to get their hair to grow, of the cost of their sexual abilities most of the time though. The catch 22 is that the more you O the less your T level is and the lower your libido will go, which will cause a partner distress if their husband masturbates too much then dosnt have enough libido left to satisfy them.

Women are opposite, they convert a small amount of estrogen to testosterone during an orgasm, therefore raiding their libido, so the more sexually satisfied a woman is the more they will want it.

It makes you wonder if whomever designed us, if anyone, has a REALLY perverse since of humor..
