There is no association between mastrubation and hair loss.  You can mastrubate as often as you like and it will not lead to you losing your hair on top of your scalp.  However, if you are referring to pubic hair, it can lead to traction alopecia due to friction and constant traction.

There is no connection. Hair loss is common in aging men. There are several remedies for it and I would seek an opinion from a Dermatologist, Plastic Surgeon, or Facial Plastic Surgeon to evaluate your option.s

Wow. This is the 3rd or 4th time this question has come up in the past week, so apparently this myth is alive and well. But there is absolutely no causal relationship between masturbation and hair loss. You have my blessings to masturbate once a day. Or more, if you like.

There is no connection between sex in any form and hair loss. Masturbation for men is a normal process and by doing so, hair loss will not be accelerated. IF you have hair loss, see a doctor and find out why
