    Hi, am new on here just discovered nofap today. So i started masturbated as a teen when i got a android phone in 2013 as a gift. i was seriously hooked on it, i masturbated a lot and i mean a lot.I just love how the feeling of orgasm felt and i did it every damn minute i had the chance. This happened in places like school,bank toilets,mall toilet i mean literally anywhere i could get some little privacy and this has went on ever since till 2017. so about three months ago, i cut my hair really really low and it was then that i noticed that my hair is starting to thin around a little region and it has got me worried. Have been trying to stop masturbating since i found out that,i didn't know it had anything to do with masturbating but that was the first thing that came yo my mind when i saw the thinning areas and the longest have gone with nofap is just two days. Today i confirm that excess fapping contributes to balding and am worried. i cut my hair really low two weeks ago and i could still see the thinning area right now i can see no thinning area cus my hair has grown a bit. No one except me has noticed this,have show about seven different people the top of my hair if they could notice anything but they all said no until i asked them to look at that particuar area, then they see it and tell me the hair in that little is not as thick as the other areas.
    My major concern is not about right now, i mean if my hair could stay the way it is now till i died i'll be pretty happy. my major concern is if this is going to keep increasing or it will stop as i stop masturbating.

    please everyone i need all your comment and experience on this one.
    thanks in advance

    Welcome! I'm glad you're here.

    I really don't know anything about hair loss being connected to masturbation. Honestly, I am skeptical about that.

    In any case, I hope you keep coming back, and if I can help, let me know.

    Welcome to NoFap where you are amongst friends who are here to encourage you and sometimes challenge you but not judge you.

    The enemy is here to steal, kill and destroy. What are your current strategies for combating the enemy called PMO?

    Why not make it a scientific study? Abstain from PMO and take pictures of your scalp each month. Maybe even create a journal here.

    My own hair look denser after just 39 days and I plan to do the same. However, at this point I cannot say anything definite about there being a connection between the two. One thing I can GUARANTEE is that if you abstain from PMO, your self-image will improve greatly. You will simply stop worrying about a lot of things.

    Uh, 33 years of PMO here, and I have a full head of thick hair. Genetics and possibly a bit of environment. Your hair should be the least of your concerns. Pornography addiction will follow and dominate you the rest of your life if you don't start dealing with it now. Start a journal and get going on a reboot, that's my advice. You can be free.

    hi guys, to be sincere i thought no one was going to reply to this thread cos i waited two weeks and got no reply until now. so i have manage to sucessfully start my nofap journey for a week now and i have not notice any major difference yet although it's now looking like the thinning has stopped. Like i said in my first post here,no one has noticed my hair thinning except me. so am just lucky i noticed this earlier but am really concerned about it getting worst, so i started using coconut oil on my head and am thinking of trying onion juice as well. So i'll will start taking before and after pics from today, i'll take them every week and i will post them on here. it's certain that excessive masturbation has a major link with hair loss but most people won't believe this cos it not scientifically proven and it's not always the case for everyone who masturbates.

    Regardless of whether there is a link to hair loss or not, what strategies are you using to deal with masturbation?

    Great. Please keep taking pics at regular intervals. I am doing so myself. A week is too less a time to notice any changes. Maybe take things a month at a time. There is nothing to lose out of the whole experiment except an addiction.

    Personally, I would not advise using any special oil/shampoo. In my experience, they do not work and just make the scalp messy. Keep your scalp clean though. If you have dandruff, you may use a medicated shampoo such as Nizoral. Above all, I would strongly advise not wasting time and money on quacks such as Dr. Batra (which I have personally used, mainly to prove a point).

    After over 30 years of fapping I noticed some serious hair loss. Recently, on NoFap, I began to see that more hair was growing on top. Then I read i the news that the medication that I was taking for my prostate, President Trump was taking for hair growth. It may be the medication or it may be no PMO, but the reality is that I have more hair.
    It has not yet turned orange. ;)

    Me ... I am just 27, addicted to porn from the age of 13 ... I have had severe hairloss to an extent I have almost nothing left on my scalp. Several Ayurvedic doctors had told me it is due to my excessive masturbation because it results in DHT which causes thinning of hair and eventually hair loss. It could also be due to my low self care due to procrastination but I attribute my procrastination to fapping because when I have had an urge, I have spent most of the night watching porn, not to mention the sleep debt and the stress.

    Yes of course there's a connection. You're losing massive amounts of nutrients when you jack off; I mean spunk after spunk after spunk goes all your nutrients out of your body, leaving the rest of your body like hair growth deficient because you spunked out all the nutrients.

    I also have same experience regarding fap and hair fall. Till my 25 I use to fap once in a day and had mild hair fall but there was a period of 6 months in middle when I was in stress and depression due to that I did more than 2-3 times fap in a day. After 4-5 months my hair's suddenly started falling like crazy and atleast 500+ hair's falled down aday. Within 15-20 days I started looking bald and had used minoxidil and all those hair loss product. Since then I fap once in a day usually and still have a hair fall. By now I have lost all my hair's on temple part and now crown also started receding. I had no idea that it may be falling due to fap. Now I will try to control for few months and will update if any improvement is visible.

    I think @AliveAgain is right.
    We need to take pictures to test this hypothesis.
    There are so many blogs and YouTube videos claiming no pmo regrows hair, but I have not seen any convincing photos or videos to back these claims yet.
    Wish I had a camera. My phone camera is pretty useless up close.

    you are right man. We need to test this hypothesis. I have a good camera and i already took a good photo of my hair about three weeks ago but i have not been able to go a really good streak. i will post the after photos here after i finish a 30 day streak.

    @Jay. Are you performing hard/monk mode (i.e. No orgasm or edging) for your streak if you don't mind me asking?
