Frequent sex: Does it protect against prostate cancer?

June, 24th, 2024


Question

Is there research to support the theory that frequent ejaculation reduces the risk of prostate cancer?


Summary

Some studies have suggested that frequent ejaculation may reduce the risk of prostate cancer. But other research hasn’t supported this idea.


Answer

, Answer Section, ,

At this time, there is no conclusive evidence that frequent ejaculation reduces the risk of prostate cancer.

Some studies have suggested that men with a higher frequency of ejaculations may have a slightly lower risk of prostate cancer. However, this difference appears to be very small. Other studies haven’t supported this conclusion.
