Masturbation Reduces Cancer Risk

For the longest time, Masturbation has been viewed upon as a sinful negative act by our society. Maybe because the Philippines is a Catholic Christian country and our religion here really has an impact on society and the way we live our lives. However, a recent study done in Germany shows that Masturbation at least 5 times a week cuts the chances of having Prostate Cancer by 1/3 later on in your life. Yes… this is truly a OMGWTFBBQ moment.

More details on this amazing discovery after the jump.

Here’s the full article:

Australian researchers questioned over 1,000 men who had developed prostate cancer and 1,250 who had not about their sexual habits. They found those who had ejaculated the most between the ages of 20 and 50 were the least likely to develop the cancer. The protective effect was greatest while the men were in their 20s.

Men who ejaculated more than five times a week were a third less likely to develop prostate cancer later in life.

Previous research has suggested that a high number of sexual partners or a high level of sexual activity increased a man’s risk of developing prostate cancer by up to 40%.

But the Australian researchers who carried out this study suggest the early work missed the protective effect of ejaculation because it focussed on sexual intercourse, with its associated risk of STIs.

Graham Giles, of the Cancer Council Victoria in Melbourne, who led the research team, told New Scientist: “Had we been able to remove ejaculations associated with sexual intercourse, there should have been an even stronger protective effect of ejaculations.”

The researchers suggest that ejaculating may prevent carcinogens accumulating in the prostate gland.

The prostate provides a fluid into semen during ejaculation that activates sperm and prevents them sticking together.

The fluid has high concentrations of substances including potassium, zinc, fructose and citric acid, which are drawn from the bloodstream.

But animal studies have shown carcinogens such as 3-methylchloranthrene, found in cigarette smoke, are also concentrated in the prostate.

‘Flushing out’

Dr Giles said fewer ejaculations may mean the carcinogens build up.

“It’s a prostatic stagnation hypothesis. The more you flush the ducts out, the less there is to hang around and damage the cells that line them.”

A similar connection has been found between breast cancer and breastfeeding, where lactating appeared to “flush out” carcinogens, reduce a woman’s risk of the disease, New Scientist reports.

Another theory put forward by the researchers is that ejaculation may induce prostate glands to mature fully, making them less susceptible to carcinogens.

Dr Chris Hiley, head of policy and research at the UK’s Prostate Cancer Charity, told BBC News Online: “This is a plausible theory.”

She added: “In the same way the human papillomavirus has been linked to cervical cancer, there is a suggestion that bits of prostate cancer may be related to a sexually transmitted infection earlier in life.”

Anthony Smith, deputy director of the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society at La Trobe University in Melbourne, said the research could affect the kind of lifestyle advice doctors give to patients.

“Masturbation is part of people’s sexual repertoire.

“If these findings hold up, then it’s perfectly reasonable that men should be encouraged to masturbate,” he said.

  19. There’s nothing wrong about facts being shared among others, even if it’s against the eyes of conservatives, you can’t do anything about it if it’s true.

    Nice share.

    Kulit ng picture. heh


  20. nice may dahilan nako pag nahuli ako ng nanay ko thx sir wauks


  21. Saang medical journal kaya na-publish yan???

    Pagkatanda ko…sa masturbation nade-develop yung habit na less than 5min ang tinatagal sa sex…tapos aabutin ng 6months para ma-unlearn yon.


  22. @wauks im posting here instead of in the weekly update thread because it’s only here that i can be sure to get your attention. here’s what one of your readers (Crystal) said “Sir Wauks, about the Shayla Black Bunny Band event pwede po ba kahit +4 Flying Angel (or any other premium item mentioned) or talagang dapat +0 siya? Kasi most of us have at least upgraded to +4 to take advantage of the defensive value. Thanks.” about Valkyrie siege, i wonder why the Vanguards guild always comes in and occupies the agits. look, there hasnt been any official siege in Valk for months now, these Vanguards can at least try and give out unofficial sieges. or why not they do their jobs and fix this siege issue? i hope you realize how many people are disheartened by this turn of events. if these vanguards think endless leveling is what’s fun in RO, they’re so badly mistaken.


  23. @Pathfinder, you can post that in the weekly update where I said I’d forward all the concerns to the RO Team. I’ve actually already forwarded everything to them, just waiting for their answer before I post here. Will delete your comment since it’s OT after a few hours.


  24. I’ve known it dati pa so…………….

  37. Too much is a sin… hindi porket reduces cancer ang masturbation eh maya’t-mayain nyo na…

    please do remember these lines:

    “Dr Chris Hiley, head of policy and research at the UK’s Prostate Cancer Charity, told BBC News Online: “This is a plausible theory.”” — it’s just a theory…

    ““If these findings hold up, then it’s perfectly reasonable that men should be encouraged to masturbate,” he said.” — IF THESE FINDINGS HOLD UP, meaning kapag napatunayan na tama…
