Masturbation Linked To Prostate Cancer? Uh-oh!

pacificphotos081767-3113att-stock I know a lot of guys are gasping at the title right about now. For some men, masturbation is taboo, and for some it’s not a big deal. If you’ve ever spent time in the military then you know military guys don’t have a problem joking about it, as much as they are away from their significant others. It’s actually a very natural thing although most men are embarrassed to talk about it, even to their physician. I’m not saying you should bring it up at the dinner table or anything, I’m just sayin’.

One of the latest studies in Prostate Cancer has linked frequent masturbation and sexual activity in males in their 20’s and 30’s to prostate cancer, while men in their 50’s, who are sexually active actually reduce their risk of Prostate Cancer.

To get a fair glimpse in to this study you’ll have to take a trip over to Cancer Commentary where they have all sorts of statistics that kind of go in to detail but still leave you a little vague as to the exact link between the cancer and younger males sexual activities (partnered or not).

What? Frequent sex and masturbation in 20s and 30s ups risk of prostate cancer?
