I've been wondering if the fact that I masturbate twice a week could be impacting my male pattern baldness. Should I be worried that my habit is making my hair loss worse or is it just a myth?

Masturbation frequency, including your habit of twice a week, has no scientifically proven link to exacerbating or causing male pattern baldness, which is primarily influenced by genetics, hormonal factors (e.g., dihydrotestosterone), and aging.

View allI'm dealing with some pretty uncomfortable redness around my buttock area, and it's been causing quite a bit of itching and pain, especially when I sit down or if there's any rubbing. I've been using this candidb cream for about 20 days, but it doesn't seem to be doing the trick. What else can I do to get some relief or maybe even get rid of this issue? Any advice would really help.
It sounds like you may be dealing with a fungal infection in the buttock area. Since Candid-B cream has not been effective, I recommend trying a combination antifungal and steroid cream such as Lotriderm cream. Apply a thin layer of Lotriderm cream to the affected area twice a day for 2 weeks. Additionally, keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothing, and avoid tight underwear to help with the healing process.

To reduce excess body heat and alleviate dry, dark skin, try these home remedies: drink cooling drinks like coconut water, cucumber juice, or peppermint tea; eat cooling foods like yogurt, cucumber, and mint; apply cooling packs or cold compresses to your pulse points; practice stress-reducing techniques like meditation, deep breathing, or yoga; wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing; take cool showers or baths; and consider incorporating Ayurvedic herbs like triphala, neem, or aloe vera into your routine, in addition to drinking plenty of water.

I'm really concerned about my hair loss, especially around the front. Are there any treatments I can try or suggestions you might have for dealing with this issue? I'd really appreciate your guidance.
A common treatment option is minoxidil. You can try using Rogaine, which is a brand name for minoxidil. Apply 1 mL of Rogaine solution to the affected area on your scalp twice daily. It may help promote hair growth and prevent further hair loss. Remember to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
