  5. I'm 17 years old and I've been masturbating almost every day since I was 15. I'm really curious if this habit could be causing an increase in my prolactin levels, which I heard might lower testosterone. Could this affect my beard growth?

Masturbation itself doesn't significantly affect prolactin or testosterone levels in a way that would impact beard growth. However, excessive or compulsive behaviors may affect your overall hormonal balance, which could indirectly influence things like energy levels or hair growth. If youre concerned, its always a good idea to talk to a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Papaya and Pregnancy Prevention _No Scientific Evidence_ There is no scientific evidence to support the claim that papaya can prevent pregnancy after regular sex. _Papaya's Effect on Fertility_ Papaya contains an enzyme called papain, which may have anti-fertility effects in large quantities. However, eating papaya after sex will not prevent pregnancy. _Effectiveness of Post-Coital Papaya Consumption_ Eating papaya 20 hours after sex is unlikely to have any effect on preventing pregnancy. Sperm can survive inside the female reproductive tract for up to 5 days, and ovulation can occur at any time. _Reliable Contraception Methods_ To prevent pregnancy, consider using reliable contraception methods, such as: 1. Condoms 2. Birth control pills 3. Intrauterine devices (IUDs) 4. Emergency contraception (e.g., Plan B) _What to Do Next_ If your girlfriend is concerned about pregnancy, she can: 1. Take a pregnancy test after 3-4 weeks. 2. Consider emergency contraception (if within 72 hours of sex). 3. Consult a healthcare provider for guidance on contraception and reproductive health.
