Title: Sexual Activity after HT
Post by: MrFollicle on Jan 07, 2024, 11:07 AM
Hello, everyone! As mentioned in the title, my question concerns sexual activity after HT  ;D . What is the recommended timeframe after a hair transplant to safely participate in "gentle" sexual intercourse?   :P

Does it have to do with the risk of an accident or also with the intensity?

According to Dr Erdogan (ASMED clinic) (https://www.hairtransplantfue.org/blog/sex-after-hair-transplant):

Why Is Sex Restricted Following A Hair Transplant?
You sweat during sex because you move around a lot like you are exercising, which might hurt the fragile hair follicles that attach to the scalp. So, you should avoid engaging in strenuous activities such as sex. Hormones released during sex, moreover, raise blood pressure. That is, you may have bleeding problems that impede your recuperation and jeopardize the overall outcome of the operation. Overall, avoiding sex is suggested since it may increase protein loss, resulting in a disturbed healing process. But how long after hair transplant are grafts secure enough to have sex? Typically, within 7 or 10 days grafts become secure. So you could have sexual intercourse after 10 days.

Is Masturbation Allowed After Hair Transplantation?
Many patients want to know if masturbation affects transplanted hair the same way it affects native hair. The correct response to this question is no. It is recommended to avoid any movement that puts pressure on the scalp. The main reasons for the prohibition of sexual intercourse after hair transplantation are as follows: because the scalp is very thin, it has a sensitive structure, and it is strongly discouraged to have sexual intercourse after hair transplantation, as sweating after the operation will affect the hair follicles. Masturbation is thus a more secure alternative. Masturbation after surgery is a sensitive subject that most patients dread bringing up. But when done in a safe position without harming the follicles that were transplanted, masturbation is not a big problem for patients. Overall, masturbation is a much safer option than sex after a hair transplant surgery.

This is not the case when it comes to mild sex.

I agree, I looked into it and saw that gentle sex doesn't harm as an act; there is just a fear of injury during the act!! Also, self-pleasure doesn't harm either!!!!

Everyone perceives differently what gentle sex means. Also, I believe you either have normal sex or not at all because it doesn't make sense if it's not done properly. Generally, from what I've seen in clinics, they recommend that someone has sex after 7-10 days (without specifying whether it's gentle or not).

These are for the general public so that they are not liable if an "accident" happens. If you do brisk walking after ΗΤ (which no one forbids, it's barely enforced to get the anesthesia off the forehead) or normal sex (without excess) it's the same thing.
