Masturbation immediately after Hair Transplant?

Greetings,We 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 no relevance to hair loss or hair transplant surgery unless your masturbation activity is realted to adversely touching your scalp.  If you are concerned please contact your doctor.

Hello, Thank you for your question. I usually recommend avoid 10 days any physical activity (light sport, weight lifting, sexual intercourse).

Hello,
After getting an hair transplant operation you should wait at least for a week to have sexual intercourse. 

Hi Jooeey and thank you for your question.  I would encourage you to discuss your concerns with your board certified cosmetic/plastic surgeon directly.  As long as you did not cause any trauma to the transplanted hairs, I would assume that your results will be unaffected but I do encourage patients to refrain from any exercise and/or physical activity (including sexual intercourse) for at least 1-2 weeks post-transplant.  I hope this helps and again I recommend that you discuss your concerns with your surgeon.

Thank you for the post. Immediately after hair restoration, you would want to refrain from any strenuous activities, such as working out or masturbation for atleast 14 days or so. Hope this helps answer your question. 

Neither sex nor masturbation causes balding and masturbating the day of surgery is not a problem. Men's testicles make testosterone and this is metabolized into DHT, a male hormone 40 times as powerful as testosterone. When a person has genes for balding, the hormone DHT works with the gene to cause balding
