Not until 2022 1 million people He came to Turkey for a hair transplant. In our country, the hair transplant center of the world, citizens often prefer this surgical procedure.
The phases after the surgical procedure are just as important as the moment. One of these stages is in the “recovery period” limiting sexual intercourse for a while so as not to be adversely affected.
Sexual intercourse does not directly affect hair transplantation, but because of the effects it causes, it can negatively affect the recovery period after hair transplantation.

The first of these factors “to sweat”. The scalp is very thin and if there is sweat in this area, the newly planted hair follicles will be adversely affected. Since it is not possible not to sweat during intercourse, undesirable situations can arise.
The second factor is “high bloodpressure”. During sex, blood pressure rises due to the acceleration of blood flow. Because the hair grafts do not fit well after hair transplantation, bleeding or cracking may occur here. In such a case, there is a great loss of hair grafts.
“Possible Accidents” is also a risk. Since different body movements are made during sex, the area where you are having a hair transplant may be damaged and this will also lead to loss of the graft.

Masturbation On the other hand, it does not pose a significant danger because it does not require as much energy as intercourse, but it can carry a risk for people with high blood pressure symptoms.
