Re: You want to stop going bald and regrow your hair? Stop masturbating. I'm living proof it works!
This hair loss has taken its toll on me. I'm fairly young and having my hairline recede and my hair thinning before 25 has truly affected my self esteem, and confidence with women.

However, through changes in my belief system I've learned to accept the circumstance I've fallen into. Regardless, I can't ignore the fact that this practice of mine has led me to this mpb. I'm giving up masterbation for those reasons. If my hair grows back I'll be happy. If it doesn't, I'll still be fine.

Now the question that's been bothering me as of late is, " is testosterone only converted to DHT from hormonal secretion as a result of sexual stimulation?"

Will DHT form as a result of me working out at the gym too long?
 Quoting: Mr.L 24130369


Again, the issue is a little more complicated than just elevated DHT levels, although DHT is a major inducer of hairloss.

As I have said before, DHT causes a sharp increases in body temperature, and this heat is constantly escaping from the scalp, so it leaves it susceptible to overheating. This is one of the major reasons why follicles are destroyed by the body's immune system because hair traps heat, so it has to be removed so the scalp can cool down.

Many men (myself included) report a huge increase in hairloss when they indulge in too much heavy exercise because A) steroid hormones increase through exercise and ) steroid hormones cause a sharp increase in body heat due to increased muscular stress. In other words, when the muscles are stressed, they burn up lots of energy and produce lots of metabolic heat. This metabolic heat moves to the scalp, and puts it at risk of overheating.

You will notice, that when you excessively masturbate or work out, your temples become incredibly hot. This is because metabolic heat from penis and muscles move to the scalp, which can lead to inflammation.

What I suggest you do is, when you work out and you feel your scalp becoming very hot, take some cool water and dab it on your scalp to help it cool down. We do sweat to help us achieve this, but sometimes too much heat overwhelms the sweat glands and the scalp cannot cool down efficiently. So a little cool water dabbing will help it cool down to 98F and will also reduce inflammation.

Women then are definitely sexually superior! When I orgasm I feel more energetic yet relaxed. I focus better after orgasm. I can orgasm as many as 6 times during one masturbation session and even during sex. I can have 2 orgasms in the morning, one in the afternoon and even then a few before bed with no side effects.

Yes, it's not orgasms which cause hairloss, it is, in part, due to consistently elevated temperatures caused by steroid hormones.

Another problem, is that men tend to have larger skulls than women, so it can make the skin of the scalp tighter than normal. As a result this tightness can cause compression of the sweat glands within follicles. When this happens, heat cannot escape efficiently and it leads to rapid and accelerated hairloss.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16691062


I have covered this issue before. It depends upon how efficient their scalps are at releasing heat. For instance, a tight scalp can prevent proper heat release, whereas men who have looser scalps do not have this problem because their sweat glands don't suffer from compression.

So, if you generate too much DHT and suffer from a tightened 'galea', then heat will become trapped and provoke an inflammatory response.

Pinch the skin on your upper scalp, and feel how tight it is compared to the lower back and sides of the scalp (where baldness never occurs). It's this tightness which causes a whole range of problems.

OK I don't exactly know what's going on here, but I'd been studying hairloss for years, and there were all sorts of differing theories as to what causes it. I was reading about how the anti-hairloss drug Propecia prevents testosterone being converted into dihydrotestosterone -- the supposed hormone responsible for causing male pattern baldness. This hormone is also apparently related to the male sex drive.

So I started to recall during my teens and onwards how high my sex drive was; I'd masturbate constantly, and that's when my hairline began to recede. So, I decided to give up masturbating to see if this would make any difference, and did this for several months, then, one day when I looked in the mirror, I noticed small blonde hairs starting to grow back! Over time these hairs became darker and thicker, then even more small blonde hairs started to grow back, and, again, they grew thicker and darker.

You say you are living proof, but we have only your word for it. There can only be proof if you can be seen to stop masturbating and your hair to regrow.

It's just scientific thinking !

OK you have a guinea pig...

I've gone through this entire thread and I believe there is some sense in what the OP said.

I do feel he has diluted his credibility by talking about sweating scalps and overheated temples, tops of scalps being too tight, and, in later posts, eating complex carbs. I want to buy into this, and I used to, but my own obsessive research and continued hair loss means I no longer do.

He was also naive to say given time he expects all his hair to grow back, though he has retracted this.

But his central theory is plausible...

Male pattern baldness, is caused by the hair follicle's sensitivity to DHT. The follicles miniaturize(shrink), resulting in a shorter lifespan and the abnormal production of hair. This is regarded as the major cause of MPB, and this is FACT.

The OPs base argument that giving up masturbating, inhibits testosterone from being converted into DHT is very sound. (he's not the first to say it either)

It's also interesting that absolutely no snake oil is being sold here at all. Usually these types of posts have some link to a baldness related product. he's not an anti-masturbatory religious nut, so either he's having a laugh (kinda likely) or this really has worked for him.

I for one am not going to knock it till I try it. In fact I'm not going to knock it full stop to test this theory.

Yes I'm giving up wanking (or certainly cutting down) for my own benefit and for the interest of viewers of this thread. I am 34 and have a healthy sex life. I do wank too much, once a day without fail but more often than not 2 or 3 times daily. I usually fuck in the evening when my GF comes home and my performance will suffer as a consequence. That's a good enough a reason to cut down in itself. I have always been a particularly horny guy and I almost wank now out of habit, so I feel it is something I can control.

Has masturbation caused my hair loss? Of course not, I'm sadly predispositioned to it, but I do believe that cutting down wanking may well reduce the conversion of DHT that my follicles are obviously so prone to.

So I'll continue to have sex (3-5 times a week) and try to keep wanking down to once every two weeks.

I'm not going to regain my crop of luscious hair ever again, all I am hoping for is a slowed down rate of shedding and I will inform the thread of my findings with honesty. (I won't bother with pics, as they really are useless at proving anything). If shedding hasn't slowed down by two months I'll assume this isn't working for me, rather that bull shitting the theory as so many people have in this thread...

Also to the very young men who have written in saying they're worried about masturbation and baldness, really don't worry about it at such a young age, it's not worth it -wank away to your hearts content.

Guys forget about your. Stopping masturbation lowers your testosterone levels & yeah you may inhibit losing hair, but you also giving up your alpha male status. Why do you think some very attractive women end up with bald men. Would you rather have hair & a woman.

Your hormone levels are also vital to the longevity of your life. Lowing levels could be killing you faster.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1314144


Wrong. DHT levels decrease but testosterone levels increase. See, each time you masturbate, the prostate gland secretes an enzyme called 5 alpha reductase; this enzyme binds to testosterone and converts it into DHT. If this enzyme becomes absent (by not masturbating) there is more testosterone within the body.

Another thing; testosterone is not as potent as DHT, so it can increase the metabolism of cells at a safe rate, without the risk of inflammation. When the metabolism of cells are elevated at a safe level anabolism occurs, that is, the cells become larger and more developed.

DHT, on the other hand, is ten times more potent than testosterone, and it is impractical as an anabolic steroid because cells cannot deal with the rate DHT causes them to work at, and thus so much energy is produced (and therefore heat), that they inflame.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1373749


Your right, but you missed the point.

dht being more potent does in fact mean it helps with the alpha male status. I'm a woman & I will take a sexy bald man with a high sex drive & energy over a dead stick any day.

Hi buddy, whatever you said is right. Same thing is happening to me. When i quit masturbating then my hair became stronger. But the issue is when nightfall happens then also DHT effects. Can you suggest any natural cure to reduce DHT. Whenever I m masturbating i m taking head bath with cold water heat reduces in my ody and doesnt effect the scalp. suggest me

I was reading about how the anti-hairloss drug Propecia prevents testosterone being converted into dihydrotestosterone -- the supposed hormone responsible for causing male pattern baldness. This hormone is also apparently related to the male sex drive.

So I started to recall during my teens and onwards how high my sex drive was; I'd masturbate constantly, and that's when my hairline began to recede. So, I decided to give up masturbating to see if this would make any difference, and did this for several months, then, one day when I looked in the mirror, I noticed small blonde hairs starting to grow back! Over time these hairs became darker and thicker, then even more small blonde hairs started to grow back, and, again, they grew thicker and darker.

I'm not entirely sure what's going on here, but here's a few theories which may explain how my hair is regrowing:

1) I discovered that cells cannot go through cell division when they are heated beyond 40C. Everytime we masturbate, the blood becomes super heated because of dihydrotesosterone. It is a very powerful metabolite, said to be 5 to 10 times more potent than testosterone. As you're probably aware, 30 to 40% of body heat is lost through the head via small sweat glands attached to the hair follicle. They are called eccrine glands. So each time we masturbate, this red hot DHT blood travels to the scalp, and inflames the follicle, and causes cell division to come to a stand still (because cell division cannot occur beyond 40C). The cell then begins to shrink. This may also explain why hairloss is accelerated during prolonged periods of stress, because stress hormones are metabolites, which causes a rapid increase in blood temperature, and, like masturbating, this red hot blood travels to the scalp and inflames the hair follicles.

2) Each time we masturbate, blood containing DHT, travels to the scalp, and gradually begins to clog up the capillaries connected to the hair follicle and it's components. The hair follicle has many components, such as the eccrine glands, erector pilli muscle, sebaceous gland, etc. Like I mentioned before, the eccrine glands are responsible for releasing body heat from the scalp. When these glands become clogged with DHT, they cannot effectively release body heat, so this heat becomes trapped within the follicle and inflames it. Have you noticed that each time you've been losing your hair, that you've felt a prickly heat sensation in your scalp? This is because heat cannot escape, and thus inflammation occurs, and consequently, hairloss.

3) Giving up masturbating, inhibits testosterone from being converted into DHT, and causes a rise in testosterone levels. Testosterone is responsible for protein synthesis, whereby it has an anabolic effect upon cells; the more tesosterone in the bloodstream, the more developed each cell of your body will be. So maybe extra testosterone assists in building stronger, healthier hair follicles? All I know is, not only is my hair regrowing, but I'm starting to become more masculine looking. My face and body muscles/ bone structure is noticably more defined, and my skin looks thicker and healthier than ever before.

There are more factors involved in the causes of baldness, but I'm living proof that giving up masturbating/sex causes your hair to start to regrow! I'm going to continue doing this until my hairline is fully restored to it's original state.
