A recent study shows that men who frequently ejaculate are less likely to develop prostate problems and erectile dysfunction. Unlike the previous studies that reveal how frequent sexual contact leads to a higher risk of prostate cancer, this study primarily focuses on ejaculation patterns.
Researchers assume that the risk of prostate and impotence problems in men who frequently have sex is due to variation in sexual partners. This is because; multiple sexual partners predispose men to STDs. Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) can potentially result to prostate cancer in later stages.
Several Facts about Prostate Cancer Prevention
Focusing on ejaculation patterns, studies reveal that frequent masturbation about five times a week are less likely for men to develop prostate cancer and erectile dysfunction.
Experts believe that semen contains carcinogenic variables. In a study conducted using dogs, some of the carcinogenic components seen in cigarettes are also found in semen. Therefore, the more semen release from the body, the lesser chances of acquiring carcinogens from the seminal fluid.
Experts are still into concrete researches about the positive effects of regular masturbation. Routine masturbation is a healthy sexual act. However, excessive ejaculation can lead to difficulty achieving erections.
