Regular Member Lyubo93 Posted May 31, 2017 Regular Member Share Posted May 31, 2017 Sorry for the silly question, but does sex affect someway to hair loss?We know that during sex the man produces a lot of testosterone, so does it mean if we have sex often, more hair loss?

Bill - Seemiller Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Lyubo93, No, sex, masturbation or anything of a sexual nature (with the exception of excessive hair pulling which some people enjoy during sex) can cause hair loss. Remember also that testosterone itself doesn't cause hair loss. DHT, a combination of testosterone and 5-alpha-reductase enzymes do. And DHT only affects hair follicles that are genetically disposed to it. That's why hair on the sides and back of the head are safe, they are immune to the effects of DHT. I hope this helps. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Lyubo93 Posted May 31, 2017 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 31, 2017 Yeah, but during sex, the body produces testosterone, which transformed into DHT.If you don't have sex or masturbate, less testosterone, less DHT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree, bottom line sexual act itself doesn't cause hair loss, but hormonal exchanges and conversions do. People who are hyper-sexual and masturbate more get hair loss of their follicles are DHT sensitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Speegs Posted May 31, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted May 31, 2017 No, sex doesn't cause hair loss, this is a myth in line with mastrubation hurting your eye sight. It's a fiction.

Senior Member voxman Posted May 31, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted May 31, 2017 People who are hyper-sexual and masturbate more get hair loss of their follicles (that) are DHT sensitive. My life long study of this phenomenon has produced no conclusive results. Research continues... I'm serious. Just look at my face. My Hair Regimen: Lather, Rinse, Repeat.

Senior Member Swooping Posted June 2, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted June 2, 2017 Where have you learned that testosterone levels increase during sexual intercourse? This is not true. Abstinence from ejaculation actually seems to somewhat increase testosterone levels after a few weeks, but this is understudied. Either way, whether you have sex often or don't have sex at all. You have nothing to worry about. Proud to be a representative of world elite hair transplant surgeon Dr. Bisanga - BHR Clinic.
