Or at least for me, and other guys.
Backing up the results of a previous study, a new US study confirms that frequent ejaculation is corellated with reduced prostate cancer rates.
The US study, which followed nearly 30,000 men over eight years, showed that those that ejaculated most frequently were significantly less likely to get prostate cancer. […] In the US study, the group with the highest lifetime average of ejaculation – 21 times per month – were a third less likely to develop the cancer than the reference group, who ejaculated four to seven times a month.
[…] Men of different ages varied in how often they ejaculated, so the team used a lifetime average for comparisons. Compared to the reference group who ejaculated four to seven times a month, “each increase of three ejaculations per week was associated with a 15 per cent decrease in the risk of prostate cancer”, says Leitzmann.
“More than 12 ejaculations per month would start conferring the benefit – on average every second day or so,” he says.
‘Nuff said.
