Second, males who discover the joys of masturbation can lose zinc in ejaculate. Another observation by a colleague was that "catch-up growth" frequently occurred when a zinc insufficiency was corrected. One boy grew six inches in less than a year. So maybe a trial of zinc for a month would be worth it? Maybe medical monitoring of copper status during the month for optimizing safety?" -One of many great comments.
