Attention all men – we have some incredible news! Believe it or not, frequent masturbation may actually lead to a significantly lower risk of prostate cancer.
I know, it’s hard to believe.
Prepare to be amazed by the findings of a recent study conducted by researchers from Harvard University, published in European Urology. According to their research, men who climax 21 times or more per month may reduce their chances of prostate cancer by up to a third.
This study involved a questionnaire given to 31,925 men over an 18-year period. The frequency of ejaculation was determined in the year prior to distributing the questionnaire, as well as between the ages of 20-29 and 40-49.
The results of the study indicate a significant decrease in prostate cancer cases among men who engage in frequent masturbation.
Previous studies have hinted at the idea that an active sex life can lower the risk of cancer. However, these researchers have now suggested a specific number of orgasms per month that may provide the greatest benefit. While the exact reasons are still unknown, some scientists believe that a successful orgasm may help flush out cancer-causing toxins that accumulate in the prostate.
In the United States, approximately one in seven men will experience prostate cancer during their lifetime. Last year alone, there were 161,360 new cases, resulting in nearly 27,000 deaths. The risk of prostate cancer significantly increases after the age of 65, with over 85 percent of cases being diagnosed in this age range.
Fortunately, the survival rate for prostate cancer is relatively high compared to other types of cancer. Treatment options range from non-invasive methods to surgery, such as radiotherapy and radical prostatectomy for localized tumors. However, these treatments can have life-altering effects, including incontinence (inability to control urination) and impotence (inability to achieve an erection).
Given the potential side effects, it is far better to prevent the development of prostate cancer than to undergo post-diagnosis treatments. This research aims to improve lifestyles and reduce the risk – after all, prevention is always better than a cure.
Unfortunately, simply masturbating frequently is not a foolproof solution. A healthy diet, regular exercise, and routine checkups with a GP/doctor also play a significant role in reducing your risk. It is recommended that you combine all of these factors to maintain optimal health.
So gentlemen, go ahead and take care of your health – in more ways than one.
