I've had my problems with an addiction to this. When I'm bored, I tend to delve into my fantasies, and there's only way I can deal with it, and this has many times made me miss work, or ignore/avoid people and priorities. When I have nothing much to do, i like to do it. I'm kind of embarrassed of saying this, but I don't 'climax', I withhold it for as long as possible, so I can be aroused four hours on end, sometimes it causes me to ache in the belly. When I do 'climax' it feels great initially, but after, I feel horrible, filled with regret and shame and guilt. I do this all in secret, nobody knows this, to them, I look like a saint. I feel like I'm fooling them too, which adds to the guilt.

I masturbate on average once a day at least, and on sundays I'd say 2 to 4 times? When nobody is around, I like to be aroused whole day. Even if i don't masterbate, i'd say i'd try to arouse myself for at least a few hours when I can't. I HAVE NO SELF CONTROL.

I had some striking hair loss recently, after my masturbaton has been at an all time high, I went to the doc, and all the tests they did came out just fine, He couldn't find a reason, he gave me some pills that inhibit DHT production. He asked me if I work out, I don't. Then as a 'final straw' after he exhausted everything else, I guess, he said "Do you masturbate often?", being as embarrassed as I am, I said i don't, but then he said something about masturbation producing testosterone, which produces DHT, which COULD cause hair loss, the key word he said is "COULD". This stuck me, because I can't find a reason myself.

My own experience is that I do see more hair lost when I shower after masturbation. Maybe it's just me, but Could there be a connection? Maybe because I'm doing it way too often for my own good? I know there are no studies about this, but is there a connection between increased DHT or hair loss and masturbation? I'm sorry if this is a silly question.

I have had the chance of having real sex, but I'm just not interested in it? I'm not sure why, but masturbation is a real huge need for me? how do I control my 'horniness'?

I am EXTREMELY 'horny' (sorry of all these terms I'm using) from around 3 AM to 7 AM, I get up, hard, aroused, sleep deprived and with an irresistable urge to masturbate. I'm almost a different person around this time period. It is the time of the day when I do things I end up regretting.

Please help me What am I doing to my body? Is delaying the 'climax' for too long bad?
