I masturbated 5 days after hair transplant. Did it affect hair grafts growth? (Photo)

Hello, please see below for some helpful tipsWe advise to avoid sexual activity for first week after hair transplantation.  The rationale is to avoid increasing blood pressure.  There are no studies supporting this however.

Masturbation has nothing to do with hair transplant and its results.  If you are concerned contact your doctor.

No there should be no deleterious affects for the transplanted grafts by day five. If it were 1 day to 3 days post op I would be concerned.

Masturbation will not impact your hair transplants but you have far too much crusting present which needs to come off.  Within 3 days of surgery, you can resume full activities, heavy exercises if you wish. The recipient area requires daily washes as well to keep the recipient area free of crusts. I generally recommend the use of a sponge and supply my patient with a surgical sponge to fill with soapy water and press on the recipient area daily. By repeating this daily, all crusts can be washed off without any fear of losing grafts. IF any crust are present, use a Q tip and dip it into soapy water, and roll it on the crusts and that will lift them off without dislodging them, but never rub them, just roll the Q tip on the recipient crust. I like to see no evidence of any crusting in the recipient area and the crusts from the donor area gone in 7-10 days with daily washing.
