Hi
Thank you for your question. To confirm, masturbation does not have any effect whatsoever on hair loss. PRP is an effective procedure for people undergoing hair transplant and for people who wish to have thicker hair.
PRP treatment for hair rejuvenation involves the injection of a patient’s own plasma and growth factors in to the to improve hair density and the acceleration of hair growth in order to improve the appearance of hair thickness and condition.

Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is concentrated blood plasma (composition of blood) that contains approximately five times the number of platelets found in normal circulating blood. Apart from red blood cells and white blood cells, our blood also contains cells known as platelets. The function of platelets is to promote healing and aid in the clotting of blood at the site of a wound. Platelets contain growth factors that promote regeneration of the cells in the body.

All the best

In my opinion, masturbation doesn't lead to hair loss. You need to find a hair loss expert who can guide you through treatment plans. PRP is effective in thickening hair, increasing the rate of growth, increasing the thickness of hair and possibly regrowing hair.PRPHAIRMD.COM

Seriously? Who told you such a thing?  It's totally normal to masturbate (touch yourself for sexual pleasure) whether you're sexually active with other people or not. Masturbation even has health benefits, like reducing stress. It definitely does not cause hair loss.
As for using PRP, absent knowing your diagnosis there is no way to know what course of action you should follow. So find yourself a dermatologist and get a work-up. Knowledge is power.
