No, masturbation doesn’t cause gray hair. Genetics can cause premature gray hair. Extreme stress can also be another contributing factor. There is no way to “cure” it, but you can always dye your hair.

Do medications including seroquel cause gray hair?

Q: Are there any ways to reduce the growth of gray hair? I am prematurely graying and I need it to stop.

A: These are all side effects of this drug i hope u will find sufficient information from it.The most common side effect is sedation, and is prescribed specifically (off-label) for this effect in patients with sleep disorders. Seroquel will put the patient into a drowsy state, and will help the patient fall asleep. It is one of the most sedating of all anti psychotic drugs, rivaling even the most sedating older antipsychotics. Many prescriptions call for the entire dose to be taken before bedtime because of its sedative effects. Although quetiapine is approved by the FDA for the treatment of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, it is frequently prescribed for off-label purposes including insomnia or the treatment of anxiety disorders. Due to its sedative side effects, reports of quetiapine abuse (sometimes by insufflating crushed tablets) have emerged in medical literature; for the same reason, abuse of other antipsychotics, such as chlorpromazine (Thorazine), may occur as well, but research related to the abuse of typical antipsychotics is limited.Other common side effects include: agitation, constipation, memory problems (anterograde amnesia in particular is very common), headache, abnormal liver tests, dizziness, upset stomach, substantial weight gain, and a stuffy nose feeling. They have the tendency to weaken with time, being most pronounced during the first week of treatment.Two rare but serious side effects from quetiapine are neuroleptic malignant syndrome and tardive dyskinesia. However, quetiapine is believed to be less likely to cause tardive dyskinesia [1] [2] than typical antipsychotics based on the data sources which point to placebo-level incidence of Extrapyramidal side effects. Weight gain can be a problem for some patients using quetiapine, by causing the patient’s appetite to persist even after meals. However, this effect may occur to a lesser degree compared to some other atypical antipsychotics such as olanzapine or clozapine. Like other atypical antipsychotics, there is some evidence suggesting a link to the development of diabetes, however this remains unclear and controversial.Studies conducted on beagles have resulted in the formation of cataracts — while there are reports of cataracts occurring in humans, controlled studies including thousands of patients have not demonstrated a clear causal association between quetiapine therapy and this side effect. (Reference needed to April 2006 results of CATIE study.) However, the Seroquel website still recommends that you have your eyes examined every six months.As with some other antipsychotics, quetiapine may lower the seizure threshold, and should be taken with care in combination with drugs such as Bupropion.
