Does masturbation cause acne and hair loss?
I turned 15 a month ago. I've been experiencing moderate blackheads since about 13 years of age. About 2 weeks ago I stopped masturbating, my face cleared almost 100%. I started again and the acne is back. I do it about 2-3 times a week.
About a month ago my hair has started thinning in some spots. It is very noticeable when I comb it back. I thought it may have been my Differin, but I think it is masturbation.
The theory is that masturbation release testoserome which is then converted to DHT which cause acne and hair loss. If this is true, I think I can have the willpower to quit masturbation.
So you think it is true?
Any bald or balding men, here...Did you masturbate frequently when you had hair?
Of course it different for different people. Its not like everyone who does it will get acne or hair loss.

Yes it is caused by this and if I hit you on the back while you are making a face it will stick... no it is caused by your hormone levels and regardless those would fluctuate at your age... masturbation has nothing to do with it at all and hair loss due to testosterone is age related and called hereditary hair loss so if it runs in the family for premature balding that is the likely cause, your hair would also bald in a pattern google male pattern baldness... you know the flip side of this would be my stepmother who always told my brother that if he would get out and get some that his acne would be cleared... yes you should look into the hair loss and order something for your face, but playing with your pecker isn't the source of your woes, even if you are catholic.

Well alot of acne is hormone related, but do not stop masturbating! Masturbations 3+ times a week greatly lowers your risk of prostate cancer and other prostate conditions. So cancer or a little acne? Easu desicion. Baldness is hereditary, not hormone related.
