I'm 17 and a guy, and I've been masturbating every day since I was 15, but I've cut back now. I'm a bit worried if this might have caused a rise in my prolactin levels, leading to low testosterone. Could this also be why I'm not growing much of a beard?

Excessive masturbation does not directly cause an increase in prolactin levels, which can affect testosterone production. However, chronic stress or certain medications can lead to elevated prolactin levels. To help regulate testosterone levels and promote beard growth, you can consider taking supplements like zinc and vitamin D. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise routine can also support hormone balance.

As egg yolk can increase cholesterol levels, one should do lipid test and then take eggs accordingly under doctor's guidance. Generally, two egg whites per day 6 days a week can be taken as egg white is full of proteins.

I'm 20 and my breast size is barely 30 even the smallest cup size is too big. I've tried breast creams, fenugreek, and massages but nothing worked. I eat balanced but it doesn't help. Are there non-surgical ways to increase breast size, like estrogen-boosting injections or other methods?
Estrogen injections are not commonly recommended due to risks.Non-surgical breast enhancement methods usually have limited evidence.A hormonal evaluation might help if development is delayed.
