A member asked:
I have a full head of hair but was wondering if having sex 2-3 times a day will cause permanent hair loss due to an increase of testosterone and dht?

No: The stuff on the internet about sex (by yourself or with a partner) making men bald is all fake, especially the talk about "testosterone and DHT". It's mostly the product of one of the cults, intended to frighten teenaged males. Ignore it, and be angry that you've been lied to by people who want to manipulate you. And 2-3x/day? Good for you. Enjoy being young.
