I dont think how frequent you masturbate has any effect on acne cus i have tested it (went a whole month without masturbating and my acne stayed the same) and it didnt do anything for me. I have alot of acne right now and i only masturbate like 2 times per week.

after i masturbate i can feel pimples growing on my face RIGHT AWAY im going to pledge here now to stop for a week. not even going to do it this one last time. wish me luck guys.

in theory this might work, the reason why the 2 main glands/organs to release testosterone/androgen is adrenal gland and your testes/ovaries.

Adrenal gland consist of making different types of hormones, depending on its layers.
Cortisol = stress
aldosterone = sodium and water reabsorption.
androgen
Epi/Noreepi

then your testes release testosterone too. they say stress isn't related, but when you release ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) from your pituitary gland, it acts on your adrenals

WHICH IN TURN STIMULATES Cortisol and Androgens. Cortisol might not have anything to do with acne, but when you release ACTH and it causes it to release both cortisol and more androgens, the androgens are involved in causing skin to be oily due to sebaceous glands.

Of course your gonads release androgens, which is also stimulated by your pituitary gland. it would only make sense the more testosterone released the more acne your gonna get.

I mean this is in theory from what I learned and how I can relate it to acne.. but what do I know im just a medical student. Good luck

Like I said before I think it can have an impact. Basically, it should be done with moderation like anything else.

I personally think that the impact it can have on me changes throughout the month, probably linked to something hormonal.

Best thing for me is to sleep well, eat two apples in the morning, take two omega-3 pills a day, and not bother with masturbation (after a while I sort of forget about it, especially during the week). And my damn razor blade is giving me problems with the part of the skin above my upper lip, I always get it sore and it leads to red bumps.

Everytime I spank one out, my face is as smooth as a babys ass the next morning.


Dude, rub one out twice daily, you'll have a zit free face.

WHATS MASTURBATING?

Does this work for girls too or just guys?

Any of the other girls try this?

i think this thread should be closed i really do this has nothing do to with acne at all.

Why would you say that? If people get results then good for them.

I always clear up if I stop jerking off. I break out again soon after if I do. Simple.

It only affects men.

As it has been said before in this thread, you lose a lot of zinc on your sperm. If you take suplements you can compensate the loss of zinc.

As yes, it does affect acne although it's not the cause.

what if you do it the wash your face right after?

The OP abandoned us...

[size="3"][/size]I dont kno the cause of acne or how to stop it but if u have acne and u masturabate often maybe you should do it less like once maybe twice a week

I think masturbation is kind of exercise, because just by doing masturbation you burn half calories as you having sex. Maybe if you regularly doing masturbation it balanced out your hormone and prevent your zit to pop. In general some effort to balanced hormone are eating healthy foods, doing some exercise, drink plenty of fresh water, etc. But if this "effort" you do works, so keep continue the exercise.
