Hi,

Masturbation is a normal physiological process. Once a person becomes sexually mature, semen production starts which is a continous process. A person, thereafter either has sex, or masturbates or he has nightfalls (wet dreams). Masturbation does not lead to any kind of health problem- physical or psychological. It certainly doesn't cause any hair loss or thinning of hair.

Hair loss can be due to multiple causes like dandruff, etc. I would recommend you to consult a dermatologist for the same and start treatment if necessary.

Hope this information was helpful. Best wishes.
