Does Masturbation Affect Beard Growth?

Hi, Doc! Does masturbation affect beard growth? I have a nice monster beard, but I sometimes wonder. Incidentally, when my libido is at its highest, or most intense, I think the testosterone is kicking in, and growth occurs, because my beard starts itching at the roots. Just want some confirmation. Thank you in advance!

Hi.
As per your query regarding masturbation and beard growth, my advice is -

There is probably no relation between the two.

Itching at beard area may be due to some other cause like fungal infection or seborrhea.

Thanks.
