An Orgasm A Day Can Lower Can Risk Of Prostate Cancer - Researchers From Harvard Medical School

The prostate is a small satsuma-sized gland located between a man's penis and his bladder, whose main function is to produce a thick white fluid that is mixed with the sperm produced by the testicles, to create semen.

The new study is the largest to date on the frequency of ejaculation and and prostate cancer.

The researchers found that men in the 40-49 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.'
