ContextSexual activity has been hypothesized to play a role in the development of prostate cancer, but epidemiological data are virtually limited to
To conduct a review of the association between ejaculation frequency and prostate cancer risk, a literature search was undertaken. The search terms included key concepts related to ejaculation frequency, prostate cancer, sexual activity, and risk factors. Databases such as PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web...

0.68 (95% CI, 0.53-0.86); previous year, 0.49 (95% CI, 0.27-0.88); and averaged across a lifetime, 0.67 (95%CI, 0.51-0.89). Similar associations were observed for organ- confined prostate cancer. Ejaculation frequency was not statistically significantly as- ...
cancer, research suggests that you may want to make more frequent date nights in bed, or simply engage in more self-pleasure. A study from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health found that more frequent ejaculation correlated with a lower incidence of a prostate cancer diagnosis....
However, she noted that these are observational data and urged caution when "interpreting them." The results are "fascinating," said Jesse Sammon, MD, a urologist at the Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, who attended Dr Rider's presentation. "It was the highlight of the session on cancer ep...
Vestibular function was determined by caloric irrigation, with the use of the vestibular paresis formula (to measure the extent of unilateral caloric paresis) within 3 days after the onset of symptoms and 12 months afterward. Results: Of a total of 141 patients who underwent randomization, 38 ...
ejaculation frequency possibly may be associated with a lower risk of total and organ-confined prostate cancer. These associations were not explained by potential risk factors for prostate cancer, such as age, family history of prostate cancer, history of syphilis or gonorrhea, smoking, and diet."...
No! BPH is completely benign. It is not a precursor (a forerunner) to prostate cancer. A man can have both BPH and prostate cancer. What are causes and risk factors for BPH? Medical professionals do not have a good understanding of what causes an enlarged prostate. ...
