Im not sure if this belongs here or not… But this is self improvement for me. Sorry if it doesnt though, but here it is:

Does masturbation really cause hair loss? I started losing hair a few months back every time I run my hand through my head I see alot of hair come out after/during showering. I also began using different healthy oils to fix it, I dont think it helped that much. But my mum told me its because of the season change and my barber told me that might be it too. My hair looks quite thinner than I remember and my hair is pretty thick so its easy to notice for me. My mum also told me my hair looks abit thinner to her. My dad on the other hand told me it just got smoother because of the oils(olive oil, hemp oil, blackseed, avacado oil etc) I always use which made it look thinner but its smoother or something. I dont know if I can believe him but my hair does feel smoother, easier to comb, it actually at times even looks better and cleaner.
But I dont know if its gotten thinner or not. I read in places that masturbating causes hairloss so is that true? I do it 2-3 times a day usually so is that whats causing my hair to fall? Im considering hair transplant if it is at all getting thinner, but to find out that my hair genes are bad is gonna kill me
Im 21 btw
Please help

I'm 99.99% sure fapping doesn't cause hair loss. It could be caused by stress or a lot of other things. Or it could all just be in your head.

I seem to have been losing more hair recently and I'm positive it's because I'm stressed as fuck, use too much hair products and take a shower 2-5 times per day.

I cant tell if im stressed. How do I know? The only time I feel stressed is when Im at college and I only go there two times a week! Im never super happy but im not super sad either. If it is stress then is the hair loss permanent?

>Reduce fapping to once a day or once every second day
I've never heard of fapping causing hair loss but just in case it is responsible, which it probably isn't, reduce it to once a day or once every second day. Anyway, fapping three times a day is too much.

>Cold showers

Apparently helps with hair, if so, don't even do a full body shower, just stick your head in and wash your hair with it. Keep in mind, it will hurt but fuck it.

"What the cold water does is that it closes the cuticle which makes the hair stronger and prevents dirt from easily accumulating within your scalp. Basically, the same principle with how it closes the pores of your skin. Stronger hair, of course, prevents hair from being easily pulled out when you are combing, and it helps in slowing down overall hair loss."

Could be complete bullshit but fuck it, it isn't going to harm you and it isn't hard because you are only doing your hair as opposed to your hole body. Since it isn't full body and just hair, go full cold, it will hurt but it may be worth it in the end.

>Start washing your hair with shampoo every second day as opposed to every day

Also, stop putting excess shit in your hair. Be careful how you dry your hair, pushing it back rapidly can pull out hair.

Also this >>835, try meditation or something.

If hypothetically it is in your genes, fuck it, nothing you can do about it, I doubt you'll go bald. It's the man that makes the hair, not the hair that makes the man. Any hair length can look good.

If you were you'd probably know. But

Don't get too much into self-diagnosing shit though.

>The only time I feel stressed is when Im at college and I only go there two times a week! Im never super happy but im not super sad either.

I'd say that's pretty normal m8.

>If it is stress then is the hair loss permanent?

No, I don't think so.

>>838
>Basically, the same principle with how it closes the pores of your skin.
Except that pores don't really open/close. Not sure about the hair follicle thing.

And WebMD is shit btw, the hair loss caused by stress isn't permanent. But it will take some months to regrow.

if its not stress than what is it? Is it because of my genes? My dad is 50 and still has hair. Or is in my head? I have been using alot of oils lately on my hair and my hair does look easier to manage/cleaner so maybe thats why it doesnt look as thin, im not sure fuck

If you're concerned about it just get to a doc. There's really no way I or anyone else on the internet can give you a definite answer.
