    I'm 20 year old and my 10% of friends(age 19-23) have started baldness. Is it normal at that age or is it pmo effects?

  4. A lot of guys around that age start to lose their hair. Some guys even start balding in their teens.

  6. Not really related to MO though. It's the genetics. I know "professional" wankers that got a ton of hair and I know dudes that dont wank at all and go bald.
     
  7. Balding is really not that well understood. Genetics sure play a role but so do hormones and the environment. All my ancestors I know of had/have full heads of hair even in high age yet my hair has been falling out since I was seventeen.

    I haven’t had issues with balding yet thankfully, but I do have the grey hair every now and then that I’ve had since my teenaged years. Stress can play a role in sudden changes, so can medication and overall internal imbalances may have an impact. Also, contrary to popular belief, it’s not always the maternal genes that cause balding if the cause happened to be genetic.

    I think it is directly related and also not the only culprit. I mean MO isn't the sole culprit for balding.

    We need more data.

  13. I think fapping makes your hair shed. I also think because of fapping newer generation are less bearded or have patchy beards. Just look at your dads and grandads. I don't think they fapped back then because there were much less porn, women dressed up less seductive.

    I am 38, we are 3 brothers, non of us have a decent beard, while our dad had his very dense beard since his 18-19.

    I think it's definitely related to masturbation, although probably not the sole cause. I think malnourishment and stress are other big factors as well.
    There's too many people who've reported hair regrowth on NoFap for me to believe masturbation has nothing to do with it, plus enuchs/people who've been sterilized also report hair regrowth. DHT is the primary culprit of balding, because it blocks the pores from getting the necessary nutrients. When we orgasm, our testorone turns to DHT.
    Also , I don't think genetics play the main role at all. Many of my family members including uncles and cousins started balding at different points in their life. One cousin of mine was already significantly bald by the time he graduated. Yet several of my uncles on same side of the family have full heads of hair in their 40s.
