How An Orgasm A Day Can Slash A Man's Cancer Risk by Rhea(f): 5:54pm On Dec 31, 2015 |
Men who have regular orgasms - once a day - are less likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer, a study has found. Regular ejaculation throughout their lives reduces the risk of the disease, scientists discovered. The researchers, from Harvard Medical School, said they could not explain why orgasms could lower prostate cancer risk, adding further research is necessary. However it has previously been suggested that regular orgasms may flush out cancer-causing chemicals in the prostate. Another theory is that if sperm is regularly cleaned out to allow new cells to develop, it helps stop the build-up of old cells that might be more likely to turn cancerous. The prostate is a small satsuma-sized gland located between a man's penis and his bladder. Its main function is to produce a thick white fluid that is mixed with the sperm produced by the testicles, to create semen. The Harvard study is the largest to date to examine the frequency of ejaculation and related prostate cancer risk. The researchers found that men in the 40 to 49 age bracket who ejaculate 21 or more times a month reduced their risk of prostate cancer by 22 per cent. This was compared to men who ejaculate four to seven times a month. While the researchers said they were unclear as to why ejaculation lowers the chances of prostate cancer, they called the results ‘particularly encouraging'. The study followed almost 32,000 healthy men for 18 years - 3,839 of whom later were diagnosed with prostate cancer. Men were asked about their average monthly frequency of ejaculation between the ages of 20 to 29, 40 to 49, and in 1991, the year prior to the questionnaire. They found that the more frequently a man ejaculated throughout his life, the lower his risk of prostate cancer at all three of these points in time. This was the case even when they adjusted their results to take factors such as diet, lifestyle and a history of prostate cancer screening into account. Dr Jennifer Rider, of Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, said the results are ‘particularly encouraging’ but should be interpreted with caution. She said: ‘While these data are the most compelling to date on the potential benefit of ejaculation on prostate cancer development, they are observational data and should be interpreted somewhat cautiously. ‘At the same time, given the lack of modifiable risk factors for prostate cancer, the results of this study are particularly encouraging.’ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3379287/How-orgasm-day-slash-man-s-cancer-risk-Regular-sex-lowers-chance-prostate-tumors-20.html?ito=social-twitter_mailonline 1 Like |

Rhea: Did they consider: maybe it is not the ejaculation but the sex. Sex has many benefits. Maybe sex without ejaculation will give same result |
