View allI'm a 20-year-old and I've been wondering if frequently masturbating has any impact on my testosterone levels or beard growth. Is this something I should be concerned about?
There is no such relation,testosterone levels depend on your diet and sleep pattern,and for braerd growth it takes time in few people to attain fully grown beard,no need to worry,give time and consume balanced diet.

I'm noticing my skin tone is getting darker since I moved to Chennai, and I'm really concerned about it. I'm also breaking out with pimple-like wounds all over my body, which I think might be due to the heat. I usually walk to the office around 8:45 am, and my skin is exposed to the sun for just about 10 minutes. I use VLCC sunblock with SPF 30PA and even cover my face with a scarf, but the darkening is happening all over, including on areas like my legs, stomach, and back, which are covered. I'm not sure if it's just the sun causing this. Can you help me figure out how to lighten my skin tone?
