I too am going to try the black tea extract and no masturbating lifestyle for a while here. I think it does indeed affect people. Just like certain genes predispose people to certain diseases it very well maybe that certain people are much more susceptible to the effects of masturbation. I don't want to lose my hair I will say that much. It is still there but I am definitely thinning. If this shows no improvement in three months I will bang the first thing I see I don't care if it's family.
