So everywhere on the Internet i read that NoFap may help baldness and even regrow hairs.
I personally think it's bullshit, although i've to agree to some extent.

I fapped a lot during my teenager years, and now my hair is much, much worse than the hair that my father had at my age.

So, since i'm sick of all these idiots on the net saying NoFAP regrows hair without offering any proof whatsoever, i'm gonna try it.
I already tried to slow down on my faps and almost made it to one month one time, and my hair loss seems to have already slowed down considerably.

I used to fap one time each day, now i can manage to do it only two-three times a week.
Now let's try cold turkey.

Let's discover once for all if this sh*t actually works.
If it works, i'll post in six months/one year in this thread with pics of the thickening/regrowth.

1) How do you know your father masturbated less than you did?
2) Would there not be many differences between you and your father?
3) How the f*** are you going to go a year without masturbating?

I haven't masturbated in 8 months due to finasteride sides. I'm less angry, I have more energy and less anxiety.
Has your hairloss slowed down from NoFap or from finasteride sides?

Do you still have sides and continue to take it or have you stopped taking it?

My hair loss has slowed down a little bit, nothing more. Yes, I keep taking it.

What sides are you getting and why are you still taking it if you're having sides?

Also I'm sure I've had this exact same conversation with you or someone else?

I'm rea
I think so.

However, I have 0 libido and weak erections. I keep taking it because I can't go bald, I'm already ugly with hair and I have a badly shaped head, too. I couldn't get girls before, I can't now, and I surely couldn't If I went completely bald. This is an excellent compromise.

I'm really sorry you feel that way. I feel for you man.

There are some very promising treatments coming out in the next few years so try to be optimistic and in the mean time do whatever makes you happiest.

Bet your not ugly dude..

Confidence comes from within not the hair line. One of my mates is 27 and receeder halfway back his head.

But hes funny, confident and has a well hot girlfriend.

Makes me sad to read that though man cause once upon a time i felt the same way.

Hope it changes for you :)

I mean it sounds ridiculous to most people, but it's worth a try. I remember my hair loss started back years ago when i got hypersexual..I was 20 at the time. I never really cared for sexual things before then..but then i met someone..got intimate.. and had a huge spike in masturbation..I did it many times in a day..where as before i had maybe done it once a week...so continuing that for about 2-3 weeks. one morning i started shedding like crazy...Hair was falling out so much. I always kind of assumed it was the reason why..I'm guessing it had a huge affect on my hormones and DHT. I asked my dermatologist and he agreed that it's possible it had something to do with it.. But who knows?

What was that conversation like? You told your dermatologist you're jerking off furiously multiple times a day?

So you want hair to get laid, yet can't get your dick up.

That makes no sense.
Might as well drop the meds, you won't get girls anyway with a non-working dick.

Anyway, this might be the first time in my life since the beginning of puberty where i'm abstaining from masturbation.

I still masturbated once in a while, but the frequency is much less.

Didn't notice many changes, except that shedding is much less than it used to be before, and also some of my really thin hairs seem to have stopped miniaturizing.

Also my beard now is much more thick and dark.

I'm going nofap cold turkey for 6 months/one year and see what happens. I'm really curious at this point.

Masturbation starts after puberty.

Hair loss starts after puberty.

Coincidence?

;-)

Anyone also noticed that man that get married seem to get bald much faster?
Like, i know a lot of friends/parents that had full heads at their marriage and then start receding.

That post-wedding sex...

Lol not those words exactly. I just explained to him what i went through and how i turned hypersexual and became much more sexually active. I just was curious for his opinion.

When you guys say you won't fap, are you going to abstain from sex as well, cuz you know the physiology is more or less the same... I think the issue comes from chronic masturbation, both psychologically and physiologically. If you ejaculate say once a week, or even every 3 days, I don't think it will really make a difference in the long run. The reality is, even if ejaculation contributed to increased hairloss, those who are predisposed to hairloss earlier in life, and a higher Norwood, you are just delaying or reducing hairloss that probably isn't all that noticeable.. at least at this stage in your hairloss.

I'm sure every orgasm you have speeds up hairloss , it can probably make a difference from going bald at 20 years old and 40 years old. Eastern medicine and ancient cultures knew losing too much sperm was a drain on energy/ nutrients, some cultures called it the "little death". Most of your energy and life force gets drained. There is a reason why boxers/ fighters abstain months before a big fight. how often do animals have sex? a few times a year and its to create offspring.

Hair loss is probably a sign to other humans that your life force has been drained and your body has fulfilled its goal of spreading its semen.

Some people have more resistance to it, just like some people can smoke everyday and not get lung cancer, everyone has different thresholds but it speeds up the process.

A lot of people will probably call me crazy just because they have major addictions and can't be stopped so they will project their fears on it being a quack theory.

Theres no need to see whether it works or not most people already know the likely answer. With the time your wasting on this you could have been on stuff that might actually help, but I guess that depends on your situation.
